Yep, but they shouldn't as it causes confusion!

Use the MY code

Gladly we didn't get the 2.2 engine here though!

Rotrex

The new kit from TTS really sound like the best and cheapest solution to gain any power to speak of on this car. Turbo kits are incredibly hard to keep running, though the rewards are huge!

si has the comptech kit and that is a very good kit that makes great power,
quite easy to maintain and work on when i helped him tighten the belt on it.

The max power output from a Comptech is around the same as the minimum output from a Rotrex.

The Comptech is heavy, more than twice the weight of the Rotrex IIRC and puts a lot of weight on the nose of the car.

On the new TTS Rotrex setup I have never had to adjust the belt.

The game has moved on, and those Rotrex units are nice and light. The weight over the nose with a turbo or something like a Vortech, is not nice imo.
