Will send the money later using my Grandads paypal as I forgot about this and withdrew all my money yesterday
Whats this about the fan not being powerfull enough?
Might try and get my Uncle to come in his RS Turbo and Grandad in the AMG but dont no if the fan will be up to scratch?

Na just an issue with the Astra keeping inlet temps down while on the rollers without an uprated intercooler, other cars should be fine.

Yeah if the inlet temps get a bit high it retards the timing and you loose power, obviously on the road as you are moving you have a constant flow of air, on the rollers it's hard to replicate this.
