Actually quite tempted by this but sense is overuling childish instinct for a change.

I got the last head they did which was a big valve head and it will be going on a 2.0 bottom end so hope it does the job.

As for price not sure if its reasonable but at least its like one of the other head specialists on ebay that adds VAT on at end and also sells on an exchange basis.

I more meant I was tempted by that sort of work, not necesserily their prices. TBH if I was getting owt done I would have chris do it at the end of the day I'd rather he had my money at least I know some of it will go back on another Renault. Very Happy Wink

We don't have enough lexus lights per members just yet, although if they made them for R9's something tells me you'd be willing to redress that balance Wink

That was my understanding of it too

The example i was givin was look at the bonnet of your car when driving in the rain. If you're doin 60 the water on the bonnet will only be slowly moving across it, which is true. I'm sure chris will be able to explain why

hmm never looked at it that way, but i was told it caused a suction, and slowed the air down, but with a roughish surface it will cause a slightturbulance and speed the air up...
