Default 2wd Saph

Hi all, I’ve just brought my first cossie and it’s a 2wd saph. Just got a few questions if you dont mind.

It’s got a t38 fitted and it don’t come on full boost till 5k, is that right for this turbo?

Had the car on the rollers last week it made 377bhp but that wasn’t until it went past 5k, car is dead pretty much untill then. Was told the car is running very rich at idle but lean on boost think it was between .8 and 1 on the lambda.

I really think it needs a remap, whose best to go to for a level 8 ecu?

Also the engine was rebuilt for the previous owner about 1500 miles ago by Corten Miller performance, the car smokes a little bit of blue when I pull away when its cold and sometimes when I boot it and its warm as I lift off I think my mate said, is this something to worry about?

Here’s a run down on the spec:

200 long studded block
CP Low comp pistons (standard size) 7.5:1 comp
Shot penned rods and crank (balanced inc flywheel)
Cosmetic multi layer head gasket
Head skimmed with new valves
Cams BD10 BD12
T38 Turbo
Level 8 ecu
Group a coil
Ford motorsport blue leads
Samco blue hoses
Siemens black injectors
RS500 intercooler
Airtec Turbo cooler
Airtec Alloy radiator
Alloy swirl pot
Alloy header tank
Breather kit
K&N panel filter
Motorsport Developments map with switchable anti lag.
-31 actuator
Running 2 bar of boost
Stainless 3" Exhaust


Any opinions welcome, thanks in advance!!
