The law of tenfold return Riccy...... I hope to do just that, ITB's on a 1300... it will sing..... just like yours but a tiny bit quicker revving and a mile less power, lol.....

Its enough power for the driveline anyway as it is. The rocklobster doesnt like the low-down torque much
![:laugh: :laugh:](/media/kunena/emoticons/laughing.png)
I would expect the 1.3 to do pretty well on a similar intake and exhaust setup, Maybe around 100hp or so, maybe more. Your car wasnt exactly slow to start with! and I look forwards to the results very much

I keep finding 45's when talking to old mates but don't want bigger than 38's really, let me know and we might be able to work a sideways deal....

Can't wait to get out as a group, see it "in the flesh" as it were, and admire the awesome range of Jimnys we'll have!

The BigJimny meet will have a fair few new builds and some really nice cars......
I'm looking forward to seeing your car too Dave, Keith Philips's looks amazing, Riccy's is a monster and I can't wait to hear it revving, James's as pretty as a peach...... Lots of people getting close to their final spec's and completed builds.
Looking forward to seeing all of the old Laning gang (with a few newly modded cars).....
