Loving the exhaust manifold... Looks good.

What power are you hoping for. If you have plenty of money and wanna mess around with extra sensors and all that then go for autronic. Mark Shead is the man for that.

Or if you wanna stick with level 8 or i think even p8 then speak to martin at reyland im sure he will talk you through anything you need and his advice is always excellent...

Newman cams aswell.... have you got solid lifters then?

Did you get the clutch plate balanced as its something that i didnt do?

you've been tango'd

very orange mate, nice spec.

would go with either, but probably L8, for the ease of most tuners being able to map it properly.

You can get the GT35 Exhaust housing with a T4 flange so this would do away with the adaptor you are using lowering the turbo.

Whats your spec pm me if you want and I will tell you if its ok, 7.6-1 is fine for over 700hp if you know what you are doing with the rest of the spec.
