Sweet FA at the moment

- still on the running-in map. Abbey are driving it around for me as I live around 2.7 thousand miles away. Hoping it will be ready for Silverstone next week, but we'll have to see - don't want to stress the new engine before it's settled.

I've asked for a moderate tune - emphasis on driveability and a broad spread of torque rather than outright power. Last engine was making 360 at the hubs, so somewhere around 450 hubs would probably keep me quiet for oh about a month

. I want it to last, and to be driveable every day.

I've heard good things about the Apexi turbos so I'm very keen to see how it goes when done!

ooh coool, well mines running about 420@ the fly, so i guess that would equate to about 336 @ the wheels.

My car has had work done at abbey in the past for the previious owner before i bought the car, and all the work seems to have been done very well.

I do have a slight mis-firing issue at the minute which i'm trying to sort, but I think its probably just down to worn spark plugs.
