see the for sale section, may split the pricey gearbox out of it and sell for less. Just depends on how it goes

Cant hear it with this deafening exhaust on it

Looking into running a b pipe and standard backbox to bring the noise down, just need to check they are ok on this setup

Mate that is epic I dread to think how much you paid for it

Would have thought it was more than 180lbs /ft of torque mate... mine made 172lbs/ ft

Agree with you about the wet comment though no traction control + no LSD = no grip

I want to charge mine now

A decent supercharged one is 10k mate and yours is in pretty good condition + low milage I would have thought no lower than 7k?

The gearbox is what makes the car so great.

You've got a u2u Gav. I'm just waiting to hear back from Butler.

I said to my dad 'I'm considering buying gav's vts' ... and he just gave me a look and said 'Don't you remember how unreliable your 106 was?'

but, ultimately it would make a pretty handy class D race car for next year and is something I know I can drive well

As said really - whats the point of buying a pretty much standard CTR with a charger on it just to remove it? Surely it'd be much cheaper to buy a standard one?

Epic car tho, would love a standard one, let alone a charged one

Can imagine that's pretty rapid

Bet the sound is something else too!

Does this actually have torque then as well as power?!

Oh and if you do fancy getting the paintwork back in to shape, you know what to do

D'oh, yes that's very true - the lacquer that Honda put over their red doesn't seem to have a very high UV resistance - usually the only way it can be rectified is new paint, so in that case I'll refer you to Tom

Then I can de-swirl it and leave you a nice clean, well protected surface for you to maintain
