Well very chuffed with this morning as all went well with mr Carr on the rollers and the car achieved exactly what I was hoping for 
Andrew Carr mentioned a problem with the NPS switch which needs replacing as he couldt get the correct timing to begin with.
Apart from that all went well and the car achieved what I wanted 304.5bhp which for a TD04 hybrid is good going.
So massive thanks to Andrew Carr
car pulls like a train through the gears and very smooth to drive

Want to thank Neil@scoobyspares
Neil worked overtime last night to get my rear brembos, Godspeed discs and Kevlar fast road pads on for me. Now the brakes really do stop me
So now with brembos all round with Godspeed discs the braking over standard is so much better then before and has given me a lot more confidence.
Big shout out to scoobyspares again. Thanks chaps

Not much to do with the weather being so awful but decided to take all the wheels off clean polish and wax them. Couple of coats of the poorboys wheel wax and they look as good as new
Ran out of light so Couldt even wash the car

Today went down to scoobyspares to see the lads and had a front & rear whiteline arb and whiteline solid drop links all round. Must say the handling is so much better now I'm really pleased with the drive. Just need to get the geo set up and that should be the suspension finished
Also changed the plugs to ngk pfr7's and an oil change so sorted for the winter
Just like to thank the boys at scoobyspares again especially Neil always does a top job

Descent stuff kas, did a lot of reading on what to use to stop the brake dust sticking to the wheels and quite a few rated the poorboys. Pita taking the wheels off to do it but well worth it I think.
Reminds me it needs doing again.....
