Twin engine is still on going sits in my unit getting small bits done to it from time to time (but very rare get any time now a days).
V6 sits in garage collecting dust, which i will give to my son when he passes his test. V6 did get turbo'ed BUT popped headgaskets. I gave up with getting power from the V6 and moved onto the twin engine.
Uno Turbo used for 6 months and Sold.
Quad still have an still using when weather is nice.
FedUp Van Done and Sold.

Like i say before in this post, this thing eats money, everyone just thinks it can be done fast.
Example - 7" twin plate Super clutch - £615 EACH x 2 = £1230
