I'm sure there'll be another opportunity in the not too distant future. When you going to Knockhill? Are you taking the coupe?

Have you guys from the South sorted out a convoy? I'm just conscious that with the DNS problems people might not have been able to access the forum - might be worth someone doing a quick phone round tonight?

Turn up for 10 will be ideal - although you could try a little bit earlier if you wanted.

Yeah that'll be plenty time.

By the way, if anyone is familiar with the camera locations; there's one that's been covered up for years with 'Not in Use' on the cover. It's about 25 miles south of Aberdeen. It's in action again. ;\)

But it`s Sparky`s duty to set off all the speed cameras and draw the polis away whenever he`s in a convoy with us \:D .

Nice to see everyone today and glad that there were no casualties. I do, however, feel that there was definately potential for more boost.... ;\)

I got 280 bhp and 260 lbft of torque, roughly which is about what I'd thought. Running a bit rich and idle is still all over the place so it'll be interesting to see what a remap will achieve.

Well on the road home I was pushing the car a wee bit more now that I know the fuelling was ok and I think I can feel the slightly increased torque and the car definitely seems quicker but I don`t know if that`s just down to the increased boost compared to before \:\? .

TBH I was slightly disappointed that I never got the bhp hike I thought I would get with fitting the Gtec1 chip,especially when Sparky`s Coop has pretty much same level of mods but there was around 30bhp of a difference \:\( .

I guess i`ll see what I get with the chargecooler and GM EBV fitted and if that doesn`t satisfy then i`ll probably head down the well-trodden path of FMIC+better turbo (I can`t believe I just said that \:o ;\) ) .

I'm glad it didn't put you off coop ownership Baz \:\) \:D

Disappointed with my top end figure as well..but atleast good torque made up for it. I think i'll have to say i'm retiring from modding now \:\(
