Has any one added a powerjet to the 159 1750 as yet?

I think he should at least let the car run it's self in. My car even at 10000km loosened up a little more so now it's faster than it's ever been. I'd now only contemplate a chip.

Aparently, according to the salesguy...the motors on QV's are run in already from factory?

Ian...you are in CPT, heard of those GQV's that were dumping past you ever again?

All motor’s are basically run in before you get it but they will loosen the older it gets.
