Moody sky really makes the moonstone look awesome.

Do you known how the launch control works?
I'd like it setting up but want to understand how it operates;

switch on
Floor accelerator and the revs are held at set limit (eg 5000 rpm)
Launch

But what knocks off the Rev limit once on the move, where is the signal taken from?

Didn't get a video made this time wish I had now
Launch control works off the hand brake and wont come on till engine hits a certain temperature think it was 70 degrees, then burry the throttle and all hell breaks loose.
Just waiting for a new iscv to come will get it modded and get a video up soon as I can.
Ridgey Id give stu a ring at msd he is so helpful and really knows his stuff

Sweet I have been gathering parts and hope to make a similar trip to msd in the near future. So far I have light blues, new tt t35, autospecialists inlet, ab07 inlet cam, qauife pulleys, l8 ecu, I am aiming for similar power to you 370 will be perfect. Also on 205 block so dont want to go to lairy.

Yours makes good power for t34.48. 2nd and 3rd gear must be good fun scrabbling about for traction etc.
Car looks great really nice job bud.

made the trip myself a while back to see stu and get my car setup.

really enjoyed the drive home after having a car driving awful the way there and like a new car on the way back

destroyed a gearbox soon after mapping lol. ( fitted a new clutch at the time as you can see the clutch slipping on the graph)

glad i got the video tho as i have no need to roller the car from now on.

Lovely looking car but those wheels look terrible. Max Power days are long gone. Get the standard ones back on

wheels look great. Instantly recognisable and individual 3dr. Nice job

Standard wheels usually look a bit lost in the arches to me unless the car is slammed.
