Well early this morning at 2 o'clock my rear diff decided to shit itself luckily I was only doing about 40mph. Oil everywhere on the road within about 30 seconds and had to wait until 4 o'clock for a tow truck at the cost of £150 obviously not very happy. It's the first time I've had a real good run out since new turbo and map so took it to a cruise in Manchester wish I'd stayed home lol. Apart from that the car is brilliant the 80 series turbo is so much better than the standard 8 turbo the car made 391/380 at 1.9bar and pulls like a train now and the way it's been mapped means I get a huge bang and 6ft flames on every 6k plus gear change and on overrun in 4th 5th and 6th the flames are there until I slow down very happy looks and sounds awesome imo:p
