That ducting does look mental.

Would be interesting to see how it performs with the Rotrex SC. The Jackson tends to have a very linear power delivery whereas the Rotrex tends to resemble a turbo with the power coming on in a big lump after 6000rpm. Might make things a bit hairy coming on boost mid corner. :D

Although that can be smoothed out a bit with some tweaking.

I know you want rid of it, but deliberately throwing it into a field / ditch / the sea is a bit extreme is it not? :lol:

I know a couple of guys that would do it for you for a ton :lol:

Ed, you need to take the hit and punt the car in for a trade....
All that's going to happen is you will crash sometime by pure accident and some smart arse out there is going to show the insurance company this post.... :thumbsdown

The delivery is not quite as linear as the Jackson but it certainly doesn't come in all in one lump and not at 6k RPM either. It starts to pull very very strongly from 4.2k when the V-Tec kicks in.

This is a well sorted conversion and has all the niggly problems sorted. It has proper GKN driveshafts, 4 engine mounts, fully mappable ECU. Cold start and running mapping is spot on.

As I have said, I can vouch for this car as I look after it.

Paul, if you fancy buying it and want to sell yours let me know. :wink:
