had a quick look at the map on the hand controller and it does seem to be programmed for 45 degrees from what i could work out
anyway, borrowed Mikee's lambdalink so anyone know where the white & blue wires connect to on the ECU?

lol 
right, the lambdalink is installed, now can someone tell me what the **** it's meant to do!
all it does is light up the first green led on the row of lights (plus the power led bottom left) went out for a drive and it didn't budge

Prodrive WRC ceramic coated exhaust system 


got my work cut out with this project, it's short meeting my downpipe by 15-20mm, oh and it needs mounting on the other side of the car
Inside the backbox, interesting design

Twin HJS Motorsport cats


also picked up a set of 305mm Prodrive Alcon discs and bells, just need some new calipers now...
...and some mudflaps, the jury's still out on these though


oh, and i did 3 sessions at donington this afternoon, do i need a remap or what?! the car was completely undriveable, boost was playing up and i couldn't get round it by altering the duty cycle, ended up dropping it down to .9 bar, something's not right somewhere with my AVC-R/Power FC
also got the check engine light come on half way through the day, i'll find out what it is sometime this week, car ran fine so hopefully it's nothing serious
lol, famous last words

nice Kev..
isn;t the check engine light wired in to come on when you get det above a certain level on the Apexi??
Something that springs to mind with the new exhaust is.. it is mounted on the wrong side on Petter's car!!

check engine light just flashes when you get det, this one is constant
need to find the wires under the dash and check the error code
and that's where the challenge lies, i've not got a problem with the backbox and pipework over the driveshafts, thats seems ok (apart from where to hang it from) it's just from there to the downpipe that interesting

no, no they dont still work, neither the diagnostic function or the reset works because the apexi doesnt adjust to compensate iirc.
thats one thing that worried me at first but now reassures me.
were I to have afailing MAF etc, the ecu wont compensate for it and the symptioms will show early on.
the only CEL i have encountered on my car was when I disconnected the oem boost solenoid electrically, reconnected and disco, no CEL.

yep, 45 degrees cruising on motorway, not sure it can go any higher can it?
