Begbie OP ex El Presidente I AM a Coop Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 12,312 Sandhurst	Cheers everyone, it's short lived though, got to get some remedial work done first i.e. larger wastegate, exhaust manifold modified to accept the larger wastegate and then back to finish the mapping off. Still, Phil's saying it will do 400bhp easily Originally Posted by Jonny - After being taken out at Spa Your car is Usain Bolt with wellies

Begbie OP ex El Presidente I AM a Coop Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 12,312 Sandhurst	Well, been a busy boy, kind of. Since I'm waiting for the post office to open so I can tax the car, I took it around the block, napped a couple of photo's and a quick video. Today I finally painted the zender front bumper, so instead of being the usual grey, it's now broom yellow, shame it shows up the rest of the bodywork as the colour has massively faded. Also, managed to grab a quick video. 2nd gear, starting at 2000rpm, boost by 2500rpm, full boost by 3500rpm and then picks up some more after 5000rpm, and I'm only running 0.7bar God know's what 1.5bar is going to be like, a cross between and YouTube Linky Originally Posted by Jonny - After being taken out at Spa Your car is Usain Bolt with wellies
