Smithness has an 850 that does the 1/4mile in 13.49@106mph(ish), its running around 330bhp. The reason i ask is that his car is about as fast as you can go on standard internals. So if you want more then would need to start looking into forged rods etc.
Nice to see a good car de-chavved. Liking it mate. Keep up the good work.

You can tell...any chance of dropping the text speak and using spellcheck, it would be a lot easier on the viewers?
Looking a lot better than it did, Well done! He's already said he has trouble with some spelling, I'll let him off. Lol.

I reckon the RIP may look better in Matt black, Also you may have a Cv Gaitor gone buddy, lookin like grease splatter on the inside of the wheel. Think it's great your getting the Car de chav'd buddy keep up the good work.

Wheels on that car were Anthracite from the factory. If you hunt around on here (use the Search) you will find the specific paint code.
