So barring any more school boy errors mapping in the middle of April seems achievable.
Had a few ups and downs in the last month.
It took a while to get the Lambda control working…. we set up a table using 0-5v against AFR and after sending screen shots to the helpful Maxx support they pointed out Maxx works in Lambda. Obvious now but played around for a few days before solving it.
My son bought another alarm from the company that were ignoring my emails and we swapped it and sent it back, remote central locking now operates correctly. Unfortunately the immobiliser is not working now and it gets a connects to the alarm by canbus. I’ve still to investigate where the issue is. Karma for the alarm company 🙄
The idle control valve was faulty and a new one purchased but still to set it up.
The alternator decided it had had enough, replacement fitted.
The CanChecked monitor has not been looked at yet, concentrating on being ready for mapping.
The PWM fan control works great, at idle it maintains 86 degree coolant temperature with 20% duty.


My son made me these part for my air box install.


He’s been teaching himself to weld aluminium so of course the bracket was made of that.

Nearly there. I forgot to take a picture of it finished.

Still not show quality welding but improving every job.

When we finally got the closed loop working. Check the battery voltage, hence the new alternator.

The old one had the charging light slightly glowing for a while.

All back together……the interior has still to be finished
