Yes it's front wheel drive mate. Dave at Peco has been having problems with the printer but said they will be going back to the original printout sheets when he can find out how to do it.

Is that just from running more pressure?

Ie higher pressure bottle of warming the bottle to gain the pressure and being able to squirt more in?

Good gain all the same, ideal for summer when ambient temps are higher and the warmth heats the bottle a little more to compensate smile

I did a before and after like the Cruisewirral rolling road day. I gained 3bhp from the straight through exhaust and 7lbs/ft torque, but the rest was just from warming the bottle.

After putting the car on the rollers Dave noticed that the air intake pipe had come loose and was hanging off so the NOS wasn't squirting where it should. Maybe the results would have been higher but i'll have to wait until I do some more mods before taking it back on the rollers. If i'm brave enough i'll get it back on the rollers running a 1400psi bottle pressure in the summer.

Reliability's great mate, better than anything else i've ever owned and that's even with a 100bhp shot of NOS. These engines are so strong.

I've not had any problems at all yet and i've had it for about 8 months and it's gets a good spanking.

Got the stickers from Martin at Splat Graphics and also Tony Makin. It was 286bhp with the NOS, although it's got a bit more bhp now....

The Skyline was sold over 1 month ago and now got a Honda DC5 as well as the Prelude. I'll post some pics of it up today probably.

The Preludes had some recent additions including a Race Spec 3 remap, Toyo R888 semi slicks and polycarbonate windows:
