Blown 0 Posted November 5, 2004 Took the Corrado out of the workshop this evening to see what difference the new exhaust makes. All the engine mods aren't properly run in yet,but I couldn't resist giving it some beans around the airport roads to see what it could do. Keeeeeeriiiiist! It pulls like a friggin train and seems to be have the ability to out perform the speedo! It's like the car takes off,but the speedo needle is out round the back having a fly smoke before it realises that it has a job to do. :lol: Can't wait now to get it legal and get it properly run in. And then get the FMIC fitted. 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
