Andy is yet to Email it across, he's had a few issues with software getting the graphs printed.

Engine is running 9.1:1 compression Ratio
Denso 750cc Injectors flow matched 2%
Std Headers custom ported and polished by me, Improves Torque quite considerably
Sti Up-pipe
Garrett MD321T Turbo Non billet.

Bearing in mind I'm still non billet it spools the same as the VF48 turbo and takes off quite quick due to the higher compression ratio I run, But currently 460bhp 500ft/lbs.

I did have issues on mapping day with the knock sensor playing up and dropping off 6deg of ignition timing so it originally robbed it, but after a new sensor she came in a flyer

I need to send my turbo to lateral at some point for the MDX upgrade as It could do with a wee bit more shove.

Anyone got any ideas why the heated wing mirrors on my hatch aren't working? They should obviously heat from the rear de mister switch but they don't heat up. The rear window does though.

The fuse is fine under the bonnet and the electric fold and indicators work so there must be power there.

Weird. It's listed in the fuse list on the same fuse as the rear windscreen demister but that's still working fine.

Thought I'd give an update after fitting the cs400 springs and dampers. Took a whole day to get it all fitted. Trial and error with a washer on the front top mounts meant I had to keep taking the fronts on and off. The rears were a bugger too getting them out of the lower arms.

Anyway - the transformation is great. The damping is more comfortable over ruts in the road, and the actual ride is only very slightly more firm. The rear is a bit bouncy when you go over speed bumps which feels weird, but the handling is a massive improvement. It feels more flat and responsive.

Not sure I've listed all my mods before so here goes:

Cosworth CS400 Bilstein dampers & Eibach springs
Front and rear whiteline anti roll bars
Rear whiteline droplinks
Rear diff whiteline bush kit
Gearbox mount whiteline bush kit
Front under-car H brace
Powerflex pitch stop mount
K&N panel air filter
Cobrasport sports catted down pipe (second cat removed)
Prodrive cat back exhaust system
Slowboy racing remap
Godspeed Brakes front grooved discs and kevlar pads
Godspeed Brakes rear kevlar brake pads
Rear clear foglight
Rear red tail light overlays
WC Lathewerks SI-Drive cover in titanium
HT Autos front lip spoiler
3/4 front number plate
Pioneer double din sat nav/dvd screen

Think that's it for now. Future mods would be rear grooved discs, maybe rear under spoiler from the r205 and front whiteline drop links.

You'll find the wiring is up to the door but from the door to mirror there's nothing. You can add wiring and element glasses easy enough.

Totally agree. I think the Cosworth setup is hugely surefooted and very comfortable. My only criticism is that it does roll a little on the stock setup, but that's easily sorted with a spanner and certainly does not hinder progress.

A Cosworth owner was moaning on the main forum a while back saying he thought that car had fundamental handling issues and had been unable to sort it with Litchfield until he replaced the system with something else.

I guess if you want to smash it round a track then that's fair enough but the settled ride and stability (towards the limit of how far you'd want to push a 400bhp car on the public roads) inspire much confidence and are far more able than the stock setup.
