You said that you are sending your car to B.Homeward. Where are they based in Auckland?

Can he tune and problem solve as well. The reason I ask as I have found some Dyno tuners but aren't that clued up in tracking any problems if lacking in horse power.

hah yeah i got them in the garage - 1 doz? You can take your pick of other misc bits if you want also.

pussytamer: Bob Homewood & Co are awesome - he can diagnose and tune very well. Granted i have a Link ECU so its easy to tune - but if I recall you were going Alpha-N which he can probably help with also. Are you going to club night at Ohaku bay tommorow? Will chat to you then if you're there.

conrad: last time i weighed it - it was 1070 - that is pre stripping the interior and pre-cage - so its probably very similar now. That sierra is awesome!

[MattA 162]

Excellent will be in touch.. consider them sold. thanks Matt

The last two I had anything to do with were around 1100 kilos, with similar spec. BTW, its an Escort, not a Sierra, and sorry for changing the subject in your post,that was a bit rude of me, but I couldn't resist as that other Cossie is so similar to mine.
