Yep, so which engine are you talking about that will explode in a
blink when the oil pressure drops at 11,000, certainly NOT a mini
engine because I know of only one in a circuit car that could run over
10,000 and it was a 998 Cooper.

Very, I regret the day that I turned it into a Sports Sedan.
I had another that I kept std other than legal mods for Series then
Improved Production....which were actually quite a few because of BL's
homologation program.
