Was running just over 500hp last year. Bigger blower, new bottom end, steel crank + more gas should see it

Awesome car no doubt bud but I am afraid I cannot speak to well of the owner, maybe I caught him on a bad day @inters 2006 but as I arrived at the car just as Heather and Goeff(Sciroccoworld) were leaving having just dropped off their Scirocco world stuff, the level of piss taking from the three blokes looking at there scirocco club bumpf I found a little distasteful and then when I was taking a good look under the bonnet(as I was building a 20vt at the time) I was asked if I had lost something.......LOL, I am not trying to do a number on the guy I am just speaking as I find and I hope you can understand my being a little under-enamored.

Think you might have the wrong bloke there - The owner ( Paul ) is 42 and a really nice bloke. He runs a very well known garage and is a very helpful guy. Probably just some fools messing about

Just been round to look at Jordy's Rocco (we have a mutual friend).
'Tis really an awesome beast, but still a Mk1, running a floor pan, not a body on a tube framed chassis.
