I think they're Bitter Shippers,

All we need now is for a lost Amazonian chief to turn up and debate the intricacies of Saki, eloquently fluent in Urdu, whilst ritualistically bathing his nads in a mug of Iron Bru without a shred of self conciousness.:p

Yeh and they'll give him a house and benefits and ship his family over,given a grant to produce a new drink that needs to be produced from fruit from his native country see where I'm going...bitter..not me
 


By the way thats not a single malt in the bottle in pic it's a blend...they've not bottled their single malt yet as it only flowed on 16th dec 2014 and takes 3yrs and 1 day maturing before allowed to be called whisky...supposed to be available 2018...crowd funding pending says it all...
 
Hi guys
Tvr bought there exhaust down either side of the car like a true v8/yank.
I'd like to do this to my p38, but with the fuel tank and air tank in the way it seems impossible, so what's everyones thoughts on this idea:
A duel entry and exit centre box, coupled with a y branch to swap the sides over and get an equal tuned pipe out of the back.
I know about tuning the pipe to the engine so swapping left to right via the y branch would theoretically give an equal run to each side of the engine under the car, and possibly let the engine perform better.

Comments welcome


it will probably drive you around the twist.. i know a couple of people who have put performance exhausts on a P38 V8. sounds great going under bridges, but the drone will drive you around the twist after about 10 mins on a motorway.

You can do it, sure, but bear in mind its a ladder chassis and the exhaust runs between the ladder to the rear. turning it out under the sides will require it going under the chassis and look daft, or terminating the ends between the chassis rails.. so it will just look and sound like the rear boxes have fallen off
 
I've never written with a Golf nut, lol

Good walk spoiled I say!

Briefly owned a mk1 sirocco once... always fancied a gti though...trying to buy a Jas beach buggy just now going to take a while cause owners an ex pat mechanic here in Algarve can't afford to reg it and paperwork is not in his name thinks its worth 10k...

Thats a non constructive comment....he wont accept that it will be filed under brainless like the rest...
 
a cam upgrade is one of the biggest gains in power for any engine. most chuck a turbo on but that only makes a little difference.
the isf's have their turbos in the rear wheel arch. i found that out while working on one.
