another blue gte and in my area, why don't i know about this?? :confused:

[johnl]

Lol.

Yours look good to. Is it standard?

[Squig]

ish... fse boost valve, K&N... and the guy before made an addition to the exhaust. gonna put my old Mk3 piper backbox on. Most work has been done with suspension... lower stiffer spings uprated shocks & DIY front strut brace.

why do you ask? ;)

[johnl]

Just wondered always interested in how the car does. Sometimes it seems to struggle keeping up with dissels and then the next it gives cars it shouldn't stand a chance with a run for their money.

[Squig]

if you were foot down, so was I... I'd say it's running well ;)

(of course by foot down, obviously we would never exceed the stated legal road speed now, would we :D )

[johnl]

Yup I was foot down I'd spotted you in front during the road works was waiting for the woman the silver focus to move out of my way.

I know what you mean though the speedo was reading km's not mph honest ;) I wouldn't mind I ended up missing my junction :duh:

[Squig]

Thought you took the other one a bit "oh sh*t, there the exit!!!" style of thing... is yours a 2.0 16v non turbo?

Oh yeah, I spotted you as the mobile skip (I mean focus) moved her kiester out of your way... :D

[johnl]

Mines just a standard XE with filter and drilled air box (Thinking of loosing the drill holes though as i have a feeling its taking to much hot air from the engine.) not done anything engine wise yet really want to get it running right as standard and then go from there

As for the exit was trying to work out wether to stay on till the stockport junction or come off at that one and rejoin on the other side.

As for the Focus wouldn't mind if she had put her foot down but she didn't she just pulled out and then sat there in the outside lane :(
