Once it's running, it is not used. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft" Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone

Interesting...Rich knows his stuff, will have to ask him about this. It has been under intense discussion before and the end result was that it was used only for starting, will double check. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft" Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone
