    with all that poke under the bonnet id take a look at your front brakes. your only getting a smidgen of pad contact by the looks of it.

    oh and whats it like compared to the 1.4?

    spot on stuart, the discs have a small lip on them and because the brackets have moved the pads a fraction they dont make full contact near the outside of the disc. The lip is pretty small so i hope the pads will wear it away over a couple of miles.

    to be honest i cant really compare it to a proper gt or a well modified one as the engine i had before was down on a cylinder but stupid me still wacked on a huge turbo without known. Made ok power but only came to action at 4000rpm!!! Still it comes nowhere near the power of the 20vt. With the turbo being on the larger size of the gt2871r family it is at its ease with the set up i have now and once these forged stuff come through the door it will put to the test.

    when driving you can just feel the power. The second gear pull is breathtaking and havent went much further than that untill i receive my bigger injectors as i have a gut feeling its running lean.
