Whilest twin carbs may be a step up from the single, don't let go of your long term goal of force feeding mate!

You going on the multi club run on sunday? If so, I'll chat to you then. (And fill your head with my forced induction propaganda! :badgrin: )
They don't call me the man with the rubber arm for nothing you know.............
