A little update on the running in process
The first 60 miles were done and the car was massively over fuelling and running pretty poor, i was concerned about having this map to run the remaining miles in so after speaking to James at MSD he kindly offered to come over and check the map out and get the car running safe enough to get the miles on. The original map was running mega rich so another map was added and the fuelling was brought back down to where it should be with the lambda control and now it's running really good, a little issue with cold start but that can be addressed when live mapped so i'm now 160 miles in and loving it. Air injector disconnected and boost set at 10psi but i've kept the rev's under 3500rpm so haven't really seen any more than a few psi.
New brakes are bedded in and pretty impressive over the previous setup - still need to do some high speed stops but at the min they seem really good.
Having a right headache trying to find the perfect suspension setting for the roads that isn't too soft it scrubs the arches but not to still.
Need to get the car in the air and check the bearing in the prop, shorten the diff mount bolts and replace the gearbox mount.
I'm going to drop the oil early as i'm not sure if it's been contaminated with over fuelling so on the safe size i've got another 2 x 5lt of Millers test bed oil plus it get's rid of the metal fragments that would have been collected in the early stages of running in.
Have a slight leak coming from the gearbox oil fill bung so that needs to be replaced with a new one and taped - and the rear diff cover needs to be resealed as that also is leaking slightly.
Apart from that it's all good and is being dropped off in 3 weeks for live mapping. After speaking to James i think a 32psi boost peak is the aim.
I've also made the standard support bracket longer by adding a 20mm section in - just waiting for my washers off Burton and it's good to go on.
