Morning All,

It's been a long time coming, but finally i got the time to get the Capri back on the rollers...

I fixed my boost leaks, and jetted the amal valve as advised, 1mm in W Port and 3.2mm in R Port.

Car now boosts up to 1.7 (25PSI), drops to 1.3 (19PSI) and then finally to 1.2 (18PSI) BHP has increased from 269 BHP to 313 BHP. Torque is up to 323 Llbs....

Ran out of time yesterday, but going to get back on the rollers again, was thinking of running either a 3.5mm or 4mm jet in the R Port to increase my held boost ??? Should i try and get my held boost closer to 1.5 bar (22 PSI) Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated....

All my engine timing marks line up etc, but the Tuner also feels that maybe the timing of my engine may need some very minor adjustment. He suggested that i should check that Piston 1 is at it's maximum TDC at the standard timing marks by using a dial gauge, he suggested that i may have to adjust my timing slighly...

I have Vernier Cam Pulleys as well.

Thanks to everyone here who has hellped me so far...
