Low boost 23, high boost 25, 26 now done myself little help from few mates, also no debt on doing the car, also got a wee lad and sold my flat and bought a house n the time of doing the conversions!

The low boost 205 will be mega think I may have to have a high boost 309 or 205 once I've destroyed my Rallye shell!!

If you went high boost in that 205 it would be seriously quick mate. If your not worried about the engine blowing, it would be a good test to see how much boost and power the std lump could take before it blew. I'm thinking circa 300bhp, but I could be wrong.

Yeah that's what I was thinking , a genuine 300 would be awesome on std engine, as it's only a track car, wouldn't do many miles, buy they would all be hard miles Smile

Well if your selling a built one it's cheaper for someone to buy than build

Yes, I can see that point, but it goes back to the old saying of better to buy standard and modify, rather than buy already modified.

Depends which way you at that really. I mean, you still have to pay it back though so really it is a debt of sorts.

You will love it I am sure. Fair play for going for the high boost first. Smile

How so? You have to pay it back, and it accrues interest until you do. The only practical differences between a bank loan and a student loan are the acceptance criteria and repayment terms.

It doesn't affect your credit rating, and they get written off (if you earn f*ck all over the span your career).

A student loan is more of a tax than a loan, it is even taken from your pay like a tax.

Also, how many loans have a rate of interest that is the rate of inflation?
