Yeah tape holding it closed. Quality.

I was standing at an angle trying to take a video that wasn't just noise the great big fan they have in there to keep the cars cool. Didn't really work though, still got lots of noise.

I will be too chicken to do anything whilst in warranty so it really is great to see and hear what you and others are up to.

is that all lol.

if the box fails it likely to be the output shaft of clutches slipped, couple grand to fix??

Engine fails, depends what fails I guess. No word of rods failing so that's a good thing, hole in a piston again coupe grand to fix??

simple stage one will be more than safe, if you push for max open your pockets lol

You can pick up second hand engine for a few grand now. Then recondition it, modify it, strap some biggers turbos on and start all over again. Boom!

Yes I do agree, probably because I do 100% of the work myself failure does not really worry me but I can see why tuning and failure could be an issue.
