thanks still a lot to do on it, but that’s my mates job lol, i just try to get in the way as much as possible hehe
goto do about 100-1500 break in miles then hoping to get Simon to map it (if you read this jolly sorry about the delay!) things don’t turn out as planned lol

still considering px'ing the MD321 to a 20g as i think it will be more what im looking for and better for shopping trips lol..

one thing i cant get is 12mm blue silicone hosing for the catch tank, so if anyone knows of anywhere that would help

Would suggest a set of stoptechs from Zen. Awsome brakes and save a few quid over the ap's.

Whatever you do keep the 321, it knocks the 20g into a cocked hat

no problem..

what model MD321? the H T or S?

Either we need to put a run in map on it or you need to refit standard maf, injectors and run it strictly off boost to run it in???
I cannot remember what way you wanted to do that, like you say the conversation was a long while ago.. lol

Awesome spec, should be a flyer.

Love the JDM style bonnet, very individual.

What alloys are those?

using the right inlet pipe it should fit under the phase 1 inlet manifold using spacers and relocation of PS res etc..
