What colour are the injector tops on this beast of yours - I hope they aren't orange with 8lb of boost...

At the end of the day, I'm a Home Theatre expert, I can tell you more about that subject than almost anyone, I'll let my friends mechanic check it all out for me when i drop the car in tomorrow.
Of course fingers crossed there is nothing too wrong with the set-up, but I'll let you all know when I get it back.
Thanks for all your help and suggestions.

Got my car back, and it's running great. He couldnt tell me anything about the intake and throttle body, said to really tell he would have to remove them and measure diameters of them.
The car is more than fast enough for me at this time, I'll worry about checking those out and upgrading if necessary, later.
First I need a big set of brakes !!

I'll bet.... that's a good looking setup you've got there.

If it aint broke..... dont pull it apart 8-)

I'm assuming it's had air/fuel mixtures checked out, so long as that's all good i'd justy get out there and enjoy it.... 8-)
