Damn it's quick!! :giggle::giggle:

well thats about as short a review as we could expect to be written between test drives! :)

i'll have to pop down for a passenger ride :thumbup:

Come on Facts and figures please?

BHP?

Tourque?

Bar/Psi?

any photos of how the bay looks? (with the mental turbo?)

If its anything like the mongrel after a simliar conversion it will be 220bhp and 360 lb/ft odd. :) @ 1.8 bar roughly.

Don't have any figures as yet as I need to get it on a RR.

Engine bay wise it looks sweet but understated. I'll get some pics up ASAP. Working late tonight so it'll be tomorrow sometime.

In short, FMIC not done as cost of custom pipewok was prohibitive, so map is V.smokey at the top end. Still getting used to the map and clutch biting point is different :S

Turbo sounds sweeet.

I'll be ebaying everything that ain't nailed down to get funds for a model specific FMIC to bolt on.

Oh and I almost forgot, did someone say stickers? :rofl:

Hoping to get around Combe for some practice before then!!

You want that IC bought & fitted before Combe. I wouldn't fancy SMIC'ing with a hybrid turbo for 15 minutes at track pace :D
