On a wet road that's third gear.

Of course mine is turbo'd and shifts it's 2.3T very well. Squeals wheels in second on dry tarmac.

So now everyone is completely clear on what I wrote?

I'm amazed how many people hang on my every word.:D

....Well, now we're all working from the same page:D.

The page without Dougal's Toob clips.

He has posted a toob clip of his beloved 3.9 RRC in the dirt on Pirate, complete with commentary in some foreign language.

It appears his respected tech skills don't include operating a camcorder filming spinning wheels. :)

cheers, DL

Oh that one.
That's showing how fast the T25 builds boost. Not that exciting. The turbo is also halfway rooted, only delivering 16psi instead of 20 due to what looks like rust flake damage on the compressor wheel.

Sorry Dougal!!! I definitely didn't intend for this to descend into a Dougal slagging session. I was just interested...

Guys - lay off dougal. He has contributed more good tech than most on here.

No slagging off here. Just humour.

Dougal has inspired or indirectly helped with all sorts of mods to my beloved POS (Chev Isuzu :) ) with his personal expertise and experience. Everything technical he posts is based on real shizz.

Same with Matt.

My dream project is an Isuzu / MSA box LT 230 130 based on his and others real life experiences. Need it for work and a bit of tax deductible play.

cheers, DL
