    Smile VF Supercharger in the UK!

    Hi all,

    Just flew back to London from the USA with this in my suitcase. One more box of parts is on its way and the guys at APS in Brackley are installing week of 15 Feb. Nik from VF is coming over to assist so if anyone wants to see / experience the difference and/or talk to the source in person let us know. I'd be happy to demonstrate either at APS or back in London area afterwards (SW19). I'm planning to take her to Spa end March to give it a real test too !
    Can't wait !

    Q "And what does this thing do Sir?"

    R "Well it crams loads of air into a very small place just in time for a spark to make it go bang"

    "I will need you to lay on the floor, face down etc etc....

    Sorry, what are you saying, I have blighted all people carrying superchargers in their hand luggage?
