Kept the mx5 diff.
It's a 2.0 5 speed lsd.

4.3 ratio instead of 3.91

I heard a bit of a rumor of where the d585 are actually sourced which has put me off slightly.

The list of getting smaller. Weirdly the vdi fault P0076 hasn't popped back up...
Need to get some Ht lead coil wrap. Think something isn't right on idle still

I think I have figured the mis fire issue.... I shouldn't mess about with things but I increased the oil injection rate of the omp on idle, the plugs are probably soaked in oil

Is limp mode noticeable on these engines? Rev limiter?
