    If a Scaremonger makes say 50 statements about a certain subject and some but not all eventually come true does that mean they have the power to predict ?? or just Scaremonger ??

    ha, i need a diaper for me for sure,
    ref power, not huge by any means but its more than i need, i really dont have the b5lls to go too fast.
    dyno'd at 600 with a street tune, poor headers, small fuel supply, low boost and pump gas.
    should be plenty for me, i hope.

    Should be more than enough to begin with! plus at least you know there's more to be had for when you're feeling brave enough

    yeh, theres plenty of scope for a bit more power, the motors full of good bits, so it should be strong.
    i dont know what to expect, i'm not at all competetive by nature, i'm just hanging on for the ride
