Default Almost ready for ND

Been rushing round like a blue-arsed fly this week to get the car sorted and serviced ready for weekend.

Not wanting to be out-done by the Dingle (which now looks fruitless ), I have had some improvements carried out, but the improvements have proved to be too good, and the car now needs a complete re-map at the top end . Now uses all the fuel that it did at 1.8bar held at only 1.4-1.5 bar . So I'm off to see Ahmed today for some more fuel to be thrown in so that the same held boost can be used again. More air + more fuel must equal more power, so that's all good .

Only problem is, the new mod has caused water temp issues, so I will be having to run the interior heating on full until I can sort it all out . I've just run out of time. I do apologise in advance to any discomfort this may cause to passengers on Sunday .

A HUGE thanks to the following:
Harvey for doing his usual going over the car with a fine tooth comb to ensure it is all okay for Sunday .
Pro-alloy boys for the 10 hour day on Monday .
Martin H for lending me his intercooler for measurements .
Ahmed for dropping everything at the last minute to map the car today .
