Yes, Its back and it made 4bhp more than before it went in The ECU pulled 4 degree's timing on the day of the tweak.

It now pulls 2.2bar lowdown, 2bar midrange and 1.9bar to the redline. I say about the rollers on a colder day as I'm curious what was lost with those 4 degrees timing I now need new suspension as the tweak has shown me how terrible mine now is!

Will be running v power + methanol maybe around 20%, might try race fuel just to see how it can be pushed. The car will also run nitrous.

I believe Banny has silver plated inconel rings fitted similar to the Wills rings RCMS use. Do you have any pictures of the rings and how much does Chy charge for fitting them?.

Judging by the pics he isnt gasketless, you can see them protruding out the block.

The engine is running both Steven, o-rings and head gaskets if that makes sense. The block has also been modified to increase the clamping force on the heads and to stop them lifting.

Bluerigster I dont have any pics to hand but best giving Chy a ring about them
