    happy. with refurb!

    it took a while, but ive finally got my car back.

    2 things.

    1. driving a mercedes diesel automatic estate makes driving the clio seem very very strange. especially that extra pedal!

    2. ****ing hell. if anybody asks about engine mods, i would have to say that headwork and cams are well worth it. this is without a remap.

    ive only done some urban driving, and will be giving it a small run to work tomorrow. i wont be thrashing it till im happy with the fluid levels.

    big thanks to those who i have pm'ed for advice and a big up to stan.
    the mechanic at my end was well impressed with the work.

    cheers

    dg

    ps im loving the idle!

    cams and pulleys fitted. 225's

    apd headwork. (stan)

    full gasket set and disp cap plugs bolts oil change etc.


    one slight note is that the cam seal was the wrong size, caused a bit of spillage when it was up on the ramp.

    What's the estimated power on this setup Stan? (with and without remap).

    Always good when you spend an extensive amount of money and you actually can use that and get smiles every mile
