You won't go far wrong with Max, I've had two STI's off him in the last year and both have been spot on. He honestly tell you any issues with the car which is a breath of fresh air.

Always heard good things about Hurst Cars. I'll be visiting them when I'm bored of my Spec D - which is no way yet!

First thing to do is replace the MAF sensor and ensure the car is mapped for UK fuel!

Depends on the ECU its got fitted, most changed to a link ECU so they could be mapped for UK fuel, ECUTek wasnt available for around 3-4 years prior to this so it is a must to check out and the MAF sensors are serious weak points, they have been updated so replacing is more caution and preventative maintenance than anything (it kills engines if it fails), bargain at around 100-120 quid

Luckily I have the part number you need for the maf sensor 22794AA010 METER CP-AIR FLOW
