There's an add-on board for all classic variants. Newage has it as standard of course.

Apparently it's been altered to run two cam sensors.

AlcaTek can modify their ECUs to cope with most variants you can come across...yes, ECU needs to be sent back, which can be a bit time consuming, but can be done.
Syvecs, of course, is more flexible to start with but is more costly.

Good luck Dave, here's hoping for no issues and you get the power that you're hoping for from the engine. 👍

I just went for long drives a couple of nights after work and spent the weekend just going out for the day on both days, it'll soon pass if you can find the time to put the miles in.

Ask the six toed gentleman to do the mileage for you, he'll soon rack up the miles for you. I'm sure he'll assist if you pay for the fuel.

Woop woop! Bet you can't wait to pick her up?
Those 1000 miles seemed to take forever when I ran mine in, unfortunately I couldn't get time off so had to do it before and after work. Go for it Dave get that holiday request filled in!

Is it titanium all the way to the downpipe? If not (as wouldn't want to spoil the titanium if it is) then you could have a resonator welded in to the centre pipe maybe?
