It's getting back to how it used to look under the hood, need to sort my boot out as well as it's full of pumps now and swirl pots, still at least it's matching Spec-R

Haven't posted on here in a while so thought I would add a bit more.

Engine has now covered 200 miles since rebuild and was run in at 4k revs max and .5 bar of boost. It then went back to Indigo for another mapping session and ended up with this:D

618bhp @1.7bar

And on the rolling road:awesome: Fair to say I was happy and so was Ant from Indigo GT:D

More than happy with it Matt, there's more in her but I'm going to keep it that I reckon nice and safe ;)

Are the rollers broken then I haven't been up there for a week or so?

I bet you are Nick ;) have to hold you that, sure the temptation will grow to run some more.

Yeah had to have the map tweaked on the road. Sounds like one of the motors went.

Big brakes has to be a must now, they make such a difference :)
