if its revving at 5000rpm...the odds are it couldnt pass an m.o.t because they do they emmisions test at about 3000 so the emmisions will be higher so unless your car is running real clean it may not pass

its not idling at 5,000rpm :lol: an easy way to explain it is its like turbo boost, before the turbo boost seemed to kick in at 3500 ish (standard) but now it seems to start at 5,000 but it does go all the way to the limiter at 6500 but it still feels as tho its pulling even at 6500rpm. yet when i took it up telford bypass (steep bank/bypass) i can reach 87/90mph at the top, when i had stanard intake and four branch i was at about 84mph so i must still have the same amount of oompft just feels alot different, got to rev it more before it kicks in, but when it does you cant half feel it!! :D

anyway, just done a bit more to it, iv lowered it back down another 10mm now iv got the standard manifold back on :D also i took the drivers rear wheel off and plastic arch trim and bent the arch out a bit as it was catching, i had to do the same with my old corsa, it works tho, :D it doesnt catch no-where near as bad as before 8) they are running 205 tyres on the back tho, cant wait until they wear down so i can put standard 195's on then it wont scrub at all :lol:

OFFICAL DVLA DATA:

Basicly you would have to be a right tw*t to break one for parts :rant:
