Bit of an update it went to regal for a map and they wouldn't map it die to a long list of apparent faults
-turbo water hose perished
-coilpack ends perished
-no manifold heat shield wtf?
-no external second metal gasket between the manifold and nuts... Although it didn't leak..
-boost leaks from intercooler map sensor
-low compressionon engine.. Showing 140 across 4
so charging me an hours labour for this I decided to take it away as they wanted 4 hours plus parts + remap cost + setup fee + rollers fee
got it home sorted water hose and map housing decided to put a stage one on it and it didn't run well due to the coilpack dying strange that after they had fiddled with it?!?
Fitted the afr and a new coilpack and she's starti g to run nice albeit a bit rich top end on boost showing 11.5-12 on wot in 4th. Remap is only running stage 1power aprox 14psi holding, until I get it raised to 18-20!
Had a nice play with a new green focus rs
lovely car and the 888 sat wth it lol.
