Not too much here, well, no more than normal

		I had a bow wave come over the bonnet this time last year, into the intake, lots of white smoke and very unhealthy sounding for the next few mins, cleared though and all seems grand - bit scared to look at my rods!

		Pretty floody round southampton way , it scared of hitting a puddle and having my engine drink through the cone filter shaped straw. 
On plus side, car seems more perky maybe due to nice cold intercooler?
