just started the car up, started quickly thankfully , it felt great knowing a big part of the grief of the car is over (i think, the map need a little adjustment) but fingers crossed all seems well. should have my bucket seats here by the weekend so can fit them

its up and running again, only bloody problem is its running on 2 cylinders, ive just taken the injectors out for a clean as i have a pulse up to the injectors, with 12v straight to them they open/close so ar working, i have compression, a spark etc. ive now think its limited to the injectors 2/3 clogged up so have just cleaned them and hopefully will all be good 2moro, i seriously would like it problem free now lol.

took it out with chip last night for a little bit of mapping to get it running better as the base map just werent what i asked for 
, i told emerald i have 340cc injectors they write 200cc on map etc , chip worked his magic for a while then as soon as we went to leave the car park and take til the road the alternator or battery packs up, battery brand new and alternator recon fresh on the same day , but its looking closer to running smoothly , cheers chip
