  1. hmmm after i've been running 470bhp?
  2. After my engine blew I've been pondering what to do with my wagon, now I'm not gonna chuck money at it again so whatever i do has got to be cost effective, I've narrowed it down to 4 options which are listed in my order of preference 1. sell the car as it is, yes i would lose money on it but it would mean i didn't have to spend money on it and move onto something else 2. 2.5 engine, it wouldn't be such a high power engine with maybe a smaller turbo but it would be tuned for torque and spool early and not pushed to the limit 3. get a 2.0 STi short block and add all the bits off my engine 4. 2.1 stroker engine, get my CDB repaired and build a high power stroker engine, this would be the most expensive option though I would also like to say a big thank you to everyone that has offered me goods or services and general encouragement over the last few weeks
  3. Happy birthday mate

  19. OK a bit of a update, went to Surrey rolling road today to have a tweak by Simon (JGM), since the last time i was there I've put in new spark plugs and a new fuel pump (walbro hi flow) which seemed to have cured a problem i had that i thought was down to the Simtek, last time it was remapped it made 434bhp & 380ft lbs This time we got 444bhp & 385ft lbs on just V power but with a 15% methanol mix with V power it went up to 470bhp & 415ft lbs at 1.7 bar I would like to say a big thank you to Simon for his mapping skills and putting up with all my emails over the last couple of months New fuel pump against the old walbro 255lt pump
