    yeah we had to grind a little off the alternator for clearance possibly a new belt or one a little smaller would have had saved us from doing that

    nah mate not yet.still at the mechanics.****in bloke that tuned the charger "paul from cve performance" has caused the auto to **** up.when he put the fuel reg on he didnt do the clamp up tight enough on the fuel rail which caused a fire and ****ed the whole loom which went into the auto and short circuited it so now im up for a new box which is 2,500.

    he claims the fire didnt cause the auto to blow.hes full of shit.yeh i had to run into the cinemas n get a cup of water n run back to the car n put the fire out.i thought nothing of it untill the auto shit itself so i took it to another mechanic and he said the loom is ****ed and caused the auto to short circuit.but paul from cve dosnt seem to think so.

    Thats crap as man, surely there is something you can do? Maybe get a few different opions from well known mechanics and maybe even holden dealer, and get it all in writing and tell the guy to stick it

    What's the go with the engine mate? Going for a stoker instead? Can I ask why? You were making some pretty decent power with the supercharger setup. Either way, it will still have a wicked donk in it though
