Thanks mate! Really appreciate it!

When I get home from the Ring it's getting adj TCA's, P8 ECU with custom MSD chip and wasted spark conversion. Really looking forward to how it will perform.

Made it home safe in the Saph and started the wasted spark conversion:











Thanks to the guys at MSD for the great and fast service! The conversion works really good! Feels like a new car now!

Excellent matey, I'm curious about how it will perform now. I hope, with this conversion your engine probs are solved.
Have fun and good luck the three days in South Tyrol, i'm really looking forward to seeing any pics or vids

Sorry for the lack of updates recently...

Here's the reason:



It's featured in the current issue of FastFord. I'm feeling really honored having my shonky Taxi in there. Thanks a lot to Ade for the great pics and write up! You are a star sir!!!

Thanks for the support! There'll be a lot more updates this winter. The engine is already apart again for a complete makeover and some other goodies coming over here from the island.

Small update here. Have not done a lot recently due to lack of interest over the winter and spring.

Still managed to get a few new goodies waiting to be fitted:

New rear axle as mine is not 100% straight. Will be powder coated soon.



heat wrapping:



UFCL bearing for steering column:



camber reduction plates:



New exhaust housing as mine was badly cracked:



EsCos amal valve which will hopefully be now understanding to do what the P8 ECU tells it to...



Actuator, rod and mounting bracket from mr. Rainbird





Something to have fun on twisty roads in the alps...



New Lambda bungs for the Mongoose that will hopefully arrive here safe soon:



AP 330mm 4 pots





solid rear beam bushes:



There's still some parts I'm waiting for. Including the rebuilt engine that will hopefully be back with me soon so I can start assembling the car again.
