Thanks Nik:)
 
If only I had a Auto RX8:2Rolleyes,then I could still be out driving my car & not worry about the Clutch Pedal:Giggle

Tip for you,Next time you go for a Tune Buy a Rise rate Fuel reg and a Bosch 044 Pump then have the Fuel pressure turned up, Then hey presto you will have a car capable of 310-320 at the hubs.

528 is enough power for late 10s if everything else like launch and traction is good.

Good result Nick, thats enough power for mid 12s

D\'you reckon? Better brush up on my technique then, and I may stand a chance of making Ada kiss my rosy red butt (*ahem* metaphorically :o).

Only annoyance is the pops and bangs you get at 2,200 rpm on a trailing throttle. I wouldn\'t mind, it never goes that low on the road, but in 30mph-ish town traffic it\'s impossible to avoid. Soon as I decelerate at 2500 revs it just goes pop-pop-pop-POP-BANG!, guaranteed. Fun for a bit, but it\'s a bit embarassing at times.

Wonder if it may be a dry join in the exhaust? My old Akrapovic used to do it on my FireBlade cos it was all held together with springs, and it used to draw air in through the joins slightly on the overrun. Any ideas, anyone?

Its not exactly a smooth 528 though mark was pushing the porting to the limits and then some:Laugh

Mines just started this after spending the entire weekend under the bonnet tracing the rats nest and sorting out loose pipes etc. I\'d be interested in anyone response becasue as Nik\'s said it is fun but driving through our quite little village i do feel a bit of a pillock.
