You only need some switches and minor wiring to enable the new features.

A turbo capable of ALS heat resistance would make it all last longer

Thats it

You will need a Motorsport Developments chip, a L8 ECU, two switches, some wire and to modify your Idle Speed Control Valve.

It does work better on vehicles with wasted spark ignition

Excellent, i've just fired off an email to msd about 2 secs b4 i read your post, cheers. I think i will probably need to give you guys a phone to get more details.
As i have stated in the email, engine is built and run up, but not run in yet, so i'd probably be best doing something about it now before i go any further.

I thought about that, the engine is new and so is the box, not fussed about the transmission really, i've broken boxes and shafts before so i'll just get better ones if......or most likely when they break.
Car has been off the road for 2 years so it's not a daily driver, just want something a little different, but i know it's probably not the wisest choice!

Staffi, what's the ££££ is it a rear wheeler?
