I certainly don't dislike it.

I was lucky enough to be sitting by the chicane at pit entry in Suzuki in 2013, so got them accelerating through the underpass, then at max chat & dropping through the gears approaching the chicane.

Utterly awesome but actually painful after a short spell without my cans on!

Current set up is less manic, but I do like a waste-gate whoosh!

Good grief you lot have been chatty on here. :)

Missed most of it, but can summarise by saying that the M157 (Bi-Turbo) is very playable with, the Airbus Single Aisle is crap (though better in fuel than the opposition) and the long range stuff is some of the best in the world. Especially the A380 which has indirectly paid for my last 4 cars. :D

Still a connie and still hate Toulouse. :D :D :D :D

How am I doing so far? I would still be keeping the C63 and playing with it personally...

Not been on a 380 yet... But my brother likes them!

I'll stick to rotary though... More fun landing in the garden! :grin:

Not the whole lot! MB owes me for time, fuel, miles and general buggerance!

May have to wait for Acid's next bonanza though!!!

Give him a call and see what the price would be, he does have a couple being done at the moment so the price may be about the same.

Paul at Eurocharged came closest... But not as good as Acid's April Bonanza!

It was quite amusing eman. The sales manager was (seemingly) quite incredulous that I would actually want a slippy diff when not intending to track my car!

When I explained to him how they work and why (especially down here), I could take him to 10+ junctions/bends within 10-15 mins drive, where the LSD pays dividends in day-to-day driving..... He shrugged and said he doesn't know how they work! :mad:
