Your looking at it.
Reused the casing and sold the gearset.

The injectors I think will max mid 900s.

Initially I just want to check alls okay and functioning and do a normal fuel map at mid boost.
Probably beginning with an 8.

The next planned use for the car other than my playing is in mid january and a cold airfield wont need massive power to scare the instructor stupid lol

Daft question but because half of the filter is encased in the light will it not restrict air flow ?

Also as mentioned with the rain, will you be able to use it at all in wet weather ?

Love the filters. You need a couple of headlight covers like I used to have on my old Morris Minor...

There are numerous things I want to tidy.
I plan to remove the dash and redo, I am tempted to swap to a syvecs s8 which means a new ecu loom, I need to recolour a few things and alter jubliee clip orientation etc etc.
its always in progress.
I think if I got 100% happy with it I would be bored with no future plans lol

Not much different to a well fed in engine bay or in inner wing filter really.
Its a trailer to event car, I can decide to run it at part throttle in the wet with wet filters trying to keep it on the black stuff or leave it on the trailer
Its a handful on the road in the dry, I wouldnt intentionally drive it on the road in the wet.
