wedmonds1 Posted January 18, 2007 Posted January 18, 2007 Right, Car is booked in with TSL for 28th February. Power here we come!
wedmonds1 Posted January 19, 2007 Author Posted January 19, 2007 I agree..... I am thinking of taking a video camera up with me and maybe filming some of it.... might make a nice video if they let me.
darryl_martin Posted January 19, 2007 Posted January 19, 2007 Top people up there[Y]. Been up there once, came away empty handed that time, plan to return soon[H]
Dalthegooner Posted January 19, 2007 Posted January 19, 2007 Nice one [H] A video sounds like a great idea [Y]
shiralee Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 I remember a certain person at kent modded saying they was never doing anu mods!!! But glad you changed your mind!!![] Now get your name down on the Indian list[]
granby Posted February 15, 2007 Posted February 15, 2007 Well it's actually 2 weeks away [], why not tell them if they can't fit you in on the agreed date they will lose your business and see what happens [:@]
Dalthegooner Posted February 15, 2007 Posted February 15, 2007 Thats an out and out liberty. F*ck them off and go with someone else [:@] What were you gonna get done? (If it aint a trade secret[])
wedmonds1 Posted February 15, 2007 Author Posted February 15, 2007 spose it is two weeks but its short notice none the less. They have offered me 20th or 1st but i have work commitments which means its gonna be hard to move dates around. I was having about £2,500+ of work ... 350bhp from stock U.K STI. Hope they come back to me and say they can do it after all but i am already looking elsewhere but anywhere else would have to fit me in for the same dates otherwise i cannot do
Dalthegooner Posted February 15, 2007 Posted February 15, 2007 As frustrating as it is don't rush. Better to wait a couple of months than get someone to rush and make a hash of it! Easier said than done I know, but be strong []
wedmonds1 Posted February 15, 2007 Author Posted February 15, 2007 Good advice mate. I am speaking to them again at the moment but it looks like i can have it done on the 1st if i can get the time booked of work at this stage. Would not normally be a problem but we have projects going live end and beginning of month which may mean i canont do it.
wedmonds1 Posted March 2, 2007 Author Posted March 2, 2007 Right.... Visited TSL yesterday and had all the work carried out. As i was not having a rolling road done at the end we had to go on the computer mapping but they seem to think that the car gave impressive results. Mapped on Tesco 99RON with no silcon, 275-280 at wheel (i think he said), Approx 350hpb although my 19" tyres effected it a little, 340-350 torquey. I did not really know what to expect as far as noticing the difference but once i got the car back home on roads i knew well i really noticed it. The car feels really smooth in comparison to the feeling before and it goes without saying that it goes like S**T of a shovel. Was not really expecting the exhaust note to change but it has and now sounds a lot more raspy with a more pronounced burble. Its also ALOT louder which i am sure the neighbours will be really pleased with especially because i have been leaving the house at 5am recently. May hit the essex meet on Saturday if i can. Overall a fantastic day with top people across the board. I would go back again and no doubt will be in the coming months as they noticed my clutch slipped slightly while in sixth gear. Appears ok but something to keep in mind if i come to a stand still! Cheers TSL! [Y]
Dalthegooner Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 Good news. Glad its finally sorted and your happy with it [Y] And some great figures to boot [H]
