I know what you mean Mark. We'll see. I might give a 2L Sport a test drive, but I'm up for something a little more unusual

No - but you can have Maisey, and I'll have Shaggys BPT :thumbleft:

**Posted:** Thu Jul 06, 2006 10:43 pm

nah, we should get maisey and the BPT to mate! then they will have good looking powerfull offspring :lol:

**Posted:** Fri Jul 07, 2006 7:31 am

If Shaggy did that, I doubt his F would have BPT in it :roll:

hows the car>?

Mark's F?

Not bad at all - sadly i'm a bit low on funds at the mo - so not able to drive her as much as possible and trying to save up for a good tune up and maybe a mod or two

your F now :drunken:

, cool, what BHP is it putting out?

I dunno - i think she'll always be known as Mark's F (well for a while at least)

As for BHP that is probably a question best answered by Mark - i really couldnt tell ya

**Posted:** Thu Jul 13, 2006 12:46 pm

I dunno

No more than 130, but probably closer to 120 - I've really no idea

Did you get the dials and fuel pump?

Mark

**Posted:** Thu Jul 13, 2006 12:47 pm

woooot

OK guys - i guess this is the best place to post this - as after all it is "MArk T's Car"

I'll no doubt be scrutinizing all of your cars at JAE for little ideas but...

As Mark has already covered almost all the mods I had already envisaged for my car

Any suggestions as to what else to do?

Sensible ideas please guys (by the way - turbo is under consideration but not till i have all the money saved
so at least 2 years down the line!!!)

**Posted:** Tue Jul 18, 2006 9:52 pm

I've got a long list of things I wanted to do

Mark

**Posted:** Wed Aug 09, 2006 1:14 pm

it doesnt sound right to me

"Barelyhuman's / Mark T's F"

or

"Mark T's / Barelyhuman's F"

after all - we both know that you're gonna be involved in her modding for a long time to come - hehe

Actually - i just found the new "mark T's F" thread - so i guess leave as is

She's waiting to be tuned at the mo - i've just got the cash together - so hopefully within the next couple of weeks i'll get her tuned and see about getting a proper BHP for ya

There's been no problems with the car so far (touch wood) - she really does just need a good tune at the moment

Cheers

Update

Having real issues finding anyone to do my car!!!

Anyone else has similar problems?

I'm thinking of postponing the Tune Up for a little while

Need to put the money towards something else at the mo

But hopefully i'll have some info for you guys by christmas

**Posted:** Mon Sep 04, 2006 11:22 pm

what you need doing matt? you lokoing for a place down the isle of nowhere or over in swansea?

**Posted:** Mon Sep 04, 2006 11:51 pm

yup as he said lol .. what you actually want doing ?

If its just a tune up then it shouldnt be a problem .. if you are wanting to get max performance from what you got then maybe a slight problem .. or are you just after having a Dyno done ?

**Posted:** Tue Sep 05, 2006 12:31 am

As Mr T said

Mark T wrote:

Alot has gone on under the bonnet, so you want it all sorted .... can't wait for the outcome ......

you want the whole engine set-up - ingition timing, cam timing and fuelling

So that's what i need doing

I know mark would probably have had it set to get max perfrormance

I'd rather have it going smoothly

Well i'm stuck in swansea now till christmas - so preferably get it done up here

To be honest i'd probably have to bring it back over to the mainland to get it done if i wait till i'm on the isle

**Posted:** Tue Sep 05, 2006 12:51 pm

Matt,

Try asking on this forum: http://www.ppcmag.co.uk/forum

My plan was to have it tuned to see what the max is and then have backed off for practical use

Good luck Matt.

Mark

Thanks Mark

I'll look into it :thumbleft:

**Posted:** Tue Apr 24, 2007 10:51 pm

quick update, although most of you have probably seen

took the F up to Matt's (Maylander) house to drop off his rear bumper in exchange for a bit of work

he kindly fitted my chrome speedo rings and the indiglo's - great job you did too - thanks again fella

**Posted:** Tue Apr 24, 2007 11:04 pm

i always told myself i wouldn't get any but the more i see them the more im tempted :clown:

how much were they? is it around £55 or something from my garage?
