hehe

 

sh came back from scoobyclinic with 420/400 so pritty happy...prob gunna get her sprayed in the next few weeks...next lot of problems to sort in order are

1. exhaust gaskets (ive blown 5 in 3 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
2. respray
3. new airfilter that will flow alot better & need to get some cold air to it too.
4. finish lagging all the intercooler pipes.
5. few little changes to the centre section of my exhaust
6. bonnet pins need fitting!!!

 

i'm loving the wheels and the car looks very nice too minty.

 

Getting closer to the magic 450...headers need changing then remap again, maybe a tweek to the cold air inlet might help too

 

Nice figures, but you're not wrong about it spooling late in the rev range. I assume this is a MD321T as you are going for 450bhp.

I dont know whether I would like to sacrifice my early spool on a 2.5 20g setup to gain the extra later on. I think I need to drive a 2.5 with MD321T to see when it begins to spool.

yer you do have to wait a second or so but bloody hell, when it comes in it really comes in!!!!
tbh im not sure about all the lag complaining... i think its more about how you drive, just down a gear any go, it is terrible if you sat in 5th at like 40 and plant it, but only a fool would try and race like that anyway and deserves the lag lol...and off the line its still bloody fast

 

but i do notice the diference from when i had a td04 and td05.
