Well a week ago she went off to pips for a remap, comp test and check up.. the story lol..

On the mapping session the car was spiking for some reason even tho i had the wastegate ported to 30mm for the non-seq conversion. had the man baffled lol.. long story short the tubbys had to come off, turns out the wastegate flapper was hitting the manifold so a small section of the metal had to be cut away so it could open alot more... after this there was still a bit of a spike, the exhaust is 4" for some odd reason so Pip had to make a small reducer bung from 4" to 3.5", after this the cars boosting great with no probs.. SUPERB!!!!!!!!

Another great bit of news, comp tests showing high 6`s at 150rpm which pip says is running a little slow, so at 250rpm it`ll be showing 7`s which is normal.. o and shes running 350BHP @ 0.7bar on twins WOOHOO!!

Cant wait to pick her up..:InLove :InLove

I was there yesterday getting mine mapped, very happy with the result, and Pip was top - I was looked after, he took care of my car, and it\'s just awesome fun to drive now :)

Ah yup, saw that one, they were just fanning out the flames when i got there, byy the time i left it looked okayish, i imagine the ding will beat out and you won\'t notice it that much after a bit of work and a blow over:)

lol :D It looked fine and dandy mate, well cared for like everything else there - there\'s a rather nice red FB that i kinda fell for as well... :bandit

I agree, it\'s proper nerve racking! I was just standing there thinking \'i\'ve barely driven this car, never anywhere near WOT, is it going to make it? is it going to pop? Is he going to tell me that whoever did tyhe work (me) is obviously some sort of cowboy?!\'
The worst bit was when Pip wandered back into reception - i was convinced he was going to tell me it was totally shafted! Instead he informed me that my rather pessemistic power figures were a bit off :Thumbsup!
