NICE ONE, DAVE!
Oct 5th
I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Dave Walker for many years and he’s done a couple of jobs for us on our project cars – GTM Spyder and our current Abster, with the latter’s K-Series engine now making around 198bhp from its 1.8-litre VVC, thanks to Jenvey throttle bodies and one of Dave’s Emerald M3D K6 mappable ECUs.
Indeed, along with Omex, Can Ems and DTA FAST, plenty of kitcar owners use those systems on their cars, with great success. The K6 has been on our engine for three-years now and has been 100 per cent reliable in all that time.
Well, More >
