Its making me smile but the throttle bodies, are sensitive on the accelerator pedal, so you cant just slam your foot to the floor. Its so easy to shoot up the mph lol you have to be careful hahaha.

114 hmmm going to have to get my next engine project up and running!


Altering the pedal helps a lot by the way

have already altered the pedal.
Still needs some tuning on the Accel enrichments and warm up since we changed the map on the RR.

James took some pics today after picking Pandora up from the body shop.
It ended up having new sills (what we planned for) and new doorsteps as well!!
but the guys did a brilliant job and it looks good (at least where they worked on it!! )

They also cleaned and sprayed the rear valance and sprayed waxoyl in all the nocks and crannys.

She looks brilliant! Just like lipgloss Oh and she sounded rather sweet as we were leaving too!

[Pandora]

Got the front end primed and ready for painting tomorrow, and also we are doing the arches, bonnet to. Have taken some pics, they'll be up shortly.
