Nice work mate.
Glad you have got her running it sounds amazing, good luck with the M.O.T. although it should sail through no worries.

i also ordered my new race fuel rail to go with my nice new turbosmart
1200 race fuel pressure regulator

so the fueling and boost is sorted

a long with the L1 ecu with ahmed bayjoo 330bhp chip and dark green inj
3bar map sensor
i was rocking but had to fine a air filter that would give me over 400bhp and that would fit in the space i have
so got the pipercross race foam filter.

If i had the money i would take the spoiler and the wheels off and spotlights,maybe get rid of all them gauges sell it all that on
Then buy a proper rubbber spoiler some image wheels like comp cx and i bet it would sell a lot easier
Hes prob sick of us going on about it lol, it like when people need to sell there houses sometimes you have to change your style so more people get interested and it works!
