Question: Hi, spoke to you ages ago about my Boss 429 Mustang. Work is progressing but have struck a snag. The left bank cylinder head is corroded and leaking through to the plug recess. I have been told this can be welded. Do you carry out repairs like this or know of anyone locally who can? I live in Okehampton Cheers Spence
Answer: Hi Spence - One of my staff can weld alloy to a high standard. We'd like to see it first of course, on the basis that if the result of leaving it as it is would be a written off head, it's worth trying to repair it. We're open on Saturdays 9 till 2 and 9 till 5.30 weekdays. You would have to leave it with us for repair.

Question: Hi Alan, My 1990 Supra turbo is as it left the factory with 72K on it, stock exhaust, filters etc. What can you offer to improve performance?
Answer: Apart from optimising boost, not very much. I'd be inclined to leave that one alone actually, I bet it's worth more in stock condition.

Question: hi allen i have a completley standard vw lupo gti on a 51 plate just wondering wot half decent performance upgrade you could offer for the least pennys thanks
Answer: Hi Dave - Not much I fear! tricky car to tune I'd say. Superchips don't list it, and most other devices, air filters etc, aren't appropriate. Personally, I'd just leave that one alone.
