                    • Too much boost and not enough fuel will cause over heating and detonation .

                          Got to keep the AFR'S between 15:1 to 20:1 for a good balance between power & fuel economy.

ID:	266300 We had the first casualty of the year on our first day trip of the year. The wind on the top of Elan Valley took the door out of our Callum's hand and snapped the door check strap like a twig. Will fit one from stock next weekend.
