Had it mapped roughly about a month or so ago....

As soon as i come back off my holiday (this month) i will be adding some 550 injectors that iv bought and getting it done again anyway, but surely i shouldnt need another one so soon otherwise right????

Indeed, getting it to spit flames is quite a skill hehe, almost roasted my mate's starlet gt turbo one night....
My ECU can't be mapped, so would have to buy new one. When I have a spare 1k I'll go to Alan Jeffrey lol.
Got some ideas for tweaks i.e. better inflow of air to my newage intercooler... when I have money and a job
