Smile Imola Hi-boost has started 1st time!

After many evenings and weekends working on the hi-boost engine from the now dead red Cinq going in to the Imola Cinq, I finally started it yesterday, and it started 1st time, much to my relief.

I will get the wheels back on it today sometime hopefully, if I get time, as I have to prepare the integrale for the annual London 2 Brighton run tomorrow which means lots of cleaning n polishing.

Anyway as soon as I have done that I will get some pics of it up so you can see the work that has gone into it to make it a little tidier than VAD do and hopefully a little more efficient and cooler running than standard.

Aaron.

Re: Imola Hi-boost has started 1st time!

Phone the cops, someone has parked a Maestro T in your garden!

Can't say I've ever seen that many Cento's belonging (kind of) to the one person.

Typical Cento problem, you disturb something and it says stuff you I ain't working for a bit.
