Very pleased with the results, came 4th this time!
The ported inlet was showing its effectiveness on the drag races at the end, i was pulling steadily on all the 172's and 182's.even with a passenger stayed level with a modded(R-Sport ECU, Stainless exhaust and a panel filter) 172 cup he came over and said that mine is the only 172 that has given him any hassle Very Happy

Was a good day out,
Didnt know yours had anything done to the inlet, it sounded good though!

Shame the airfield is being sold.
Looking forward to seeing the pictures and vids people have.

If he's charging you to use it then "at your own risk" or not he's still liable and is leaving himself open to a whole lot of trouble, go break your leg and take him to court!
