Update

Have been doing some tuning and testing and its liking the slight adjustments.

AFR's are 11.2 and timing was 8* @ 6psi from 3000rpm to 5000rpm (taking it slow and steady), i have increased timing to 12*@3000rpm and 10* from 3500rpm to 5000rpm it loved it so i upped the boost to 8psi (remember baby steps).

At 8psi with so little timing it spins tyres from any speed under 140 (havnt tried over that) and its making grin like stupid, unfortunatly i think a few of the poly locks have come loose as it started to get a light ticking sound which has turned into a loud ticking sound which made for an interesting trip back from the shell garage on hoxton park road to livo.

Sounds like a wrx now with a s**t load of fuel being unburnt thrown out the exhaust :oops: :x .

So will get into it tomorrow and have a look see at the rockers fix it and get back to tuning.

Nice work mate.

Spinning the tyres from anything under 140km/h, must have insane amount of HP!!
