Is your car supercharged John?

Matt.

It certainly is !! With the exception of the air feed and pulley size its a straight copy of Jim Nowaks system ( hence the transmogrification of Jims surname into a verb ) 290 BHP at the rear wheels with the tyres slipping is great fun to put it mildly, however my favourite mod on the car is a Nathan Goodlet exhaust (Flowmaster 70 with straight through 2.25 pipes) it makes the car sound stunning ( just remember to remove right foot from "go" pedal when coppers are sighted ).Other changes: First gear start (the best money I`ve ever spent, if you`re reading this without one, get one!), in deference to Eddy from Californias weight reduction fetish I`ve completely removed the air con system ( generally superfluous here in England anyway, on really hot days I can open the windows, on really, really hot days I can stop the car at a pub and have a nice warm glass of beer  ), my car has navy blue leather which to my mind did not go at all well with the rather dark, sombre walnut M-B 
 is so
 fond of so I had an ex RR veneer tech change all the wood over to a (in my mind) much nicer, warmer honey coloured birdseye maple ( looks a bit like a german Jag ).

All the best, John  `90 560SEC ( Nowaked, Goodletted and partially Eddied )
