Oooh so boring its actually fun Mr B .

Anyway if youre interested i have a boost controller exactly like the dawes devices you can buy for much cheaper since i have the research done and tried it . all sourced from the uk > B23ET is the one to go for 180hp as mentioned before . there is an overboost switch which cuts fuel at 14 psi i think , you can make them adjustable , anyway 13 psi is around 220 hp i think , anymore and transmission and clutch could need uprating definitely at 250 hp . automatics can cope with it a better - just not my cup of tea . have fun let me know how you get on .

OK,

still havent got this car BUT the guys has got a 950 estate and is flogging it soon. How mush should I pay? he wants £350 and it needs a new servo for the brakes and although it is genrally very good condition, the lights are a little faded and it could do with a polish. Does this sound about right? its got 140.000 on the clock and its an E plater

also is it easy to convert to manual?

cheers!!
