I'll use the bit of boxy for tuning and then remove it and the sensor, gonna keep the egt in the manifold it should give enough early warning to fueling problems etc.

Yeah we nearly called the wedding off when we thought it would give them equal rights to the TBLG community.

but it would appear that it was only applicable over in ROI.

But in other good news the ROI no longer require gay men to become celibate priests! so the wee boys around the countryside will be that bit safer :)


but still no RR for me :(
