    Exhaust

    Thanks, im not trying to make it into a speed machine as such, im only 18 so cant afford to cover a lot of mods anyway. Just didnt know if it would run too lean and damage the engine in any way. Is there a fuel regulator or something that will compensate for it somewhat?

    I used to think that also, they usually see it as the main driver will be using it less, as more experienced drivers will be using it also. If that makes sense? Trust me, i think each parent brought it down by about a grand for me!

    How to know the rev limit?

    Mines 7200 i think and youll know if you're near it cause it starts to get pretty noisy past 6k. Power seems to drop off after about 6/6.2k anyway

Just old one off, new gasket from back of first cat, then new system on and bobs your uncle? Where can i pick up one of these gaskets? Also will i need any fuel...

    Cam cover screw size?

    So it is rubber? I thought head gaskets were always a number of thin metal sheets

    Cam cover screw size?

    I thought it was a bit weird they were screws, any reason they arent proper bolts? Edit: and is it just me or is the gasket made out of rubber? Looked for one on ebay and it looked that way, surely it'd just melt?!
