See I'm not sure it's really worth the hassle removing that weight, what sort of gain are you going to see? I understand you might as well but meh

About 7kg. Which for free is a good gain. Does sound more impressive when you add it up next to the metal and glass. That will be 40 ish.

How's the pleasant odour?
Sorry I couldn't make it today, I'll have to see how I get on tomorrow. I've got my eye on a Cav, if I get the ok tonight, I'll give them a bell and try and sort it tomorrow. SRi 91 on the J, would that be an XE?

Not heating the sat juice this time in case I have funny dreams again
Cav sounds mazin, not sure whether it's an XE, will probably end up donating bits to something.
