okay...got it back at 3 this afternoon. have done 30 miles so far. have to check my money for the month and sort out what i have and havent got to spend...then start going places.
Sounds immense and although im only going up to 3500/4000rpm, its a cracking drive! Exhaust is blowing, but thats coz the guy who did it, did a crap job and bodged it!
ah well...its on the road!

surley you would declare this when you insured it? otherwise you're payin insurance for nothing! but to answer your question yes they can find out from this.
Car is looking good, really taking shape, looking forward to the next update, nice work fella!
