Can't really help mate - no knowledge or tools I'm afraid, but like I said before - TCS at Birchanger would help out and combine it with before and after rolling roads for about £70

Good question - nothing planned at the moment - .....

Last time I went down I spent about £80 in petrol and an rr session to find out that my car was cack .... !

Basically I've got a decat waiting for me down there too .... Sounds like a "do stuff" convoy and decat run in the making ..... Or - dare I say it - my Mrs will shoot me - but we get down there early, get the decats fitted then over to Kitch for another rr run to make sure all's well.

As my motors are sorted, with the decat I'd be looking for about 35 more horses than last time !

Cool beans.

I've sent TCS a message, if the price is good enough then i'll probably do that as they are not too far away up the ol' M11.

Off topic - sorry - but Sam - you might need to look at posting it for me to be honest mate as I don't know when I can get down .... unless Pete's close and he can bring it to Brands ....

The decat is an easy fit, the hardest part is winding the lambda in and out so it doesn't damage the wires but you can pre wind so when it goes back in it undoes to where it sits normally. Decat should be a half hour job unless totally rusted and corroded nuts and bolts like mine was.
Think its a 15 & 17mm from memory on the bolts and a big strong arm to undo lol.
