Gulp...I had better choose Pics then, and if I pop up pics it would only be fair I 'pick' from your brain ;-)

Will see what I can do Dave.

Hi Dave,

Now i'm confused, I just clicked on your website and naturally the modified 740 caught my attention, yet this looks like 1stRavens (is that correct user name?)
Car??

Just want to aim up my gunsight at the man whose grey cells are saturated with the required knowledge in tweaking a wee bit more from my sports+

yeah , thats ryans car , no idea why my website links to it !!, altho its more like ryan decided to point it there since he owns the hosting where my website was .

basically ,

15g turbo , 3 inch exhaust , chips , IPD bars on sports suspension , running about 1 bar of boost - should see you north of 220 hp easily .

adding some larger injectors/air mass meter - will let you raise the boost further

I have had many requests to upload many more images, we tried to do this today but this site times out, even if we try and load just two at a time so can only conclude there is a server problem this afternoon?

We will try again later this evening and see if we have any success?

Dave, i'm pretty sure my + kit has never worked as it should, so thought perhaps to take it off, I have a 531 cylider head, is it really a worthwhile fit?

Plan is, if it truly is worthwhile to perhaps get it polished up a bit, then I gather I need to look at the 'Fredschips'? I have a 2.5" Jetex stainless exhaust whcih I aquired from the 'Bay' recently.

I am guessing here but is there an easy way to do away with the front section and cat? i.e. sports cat, if i understand correctly I will then need a manual boost controller? Do I need this mythical early 960 AMM for it all to work correctly?

I am no boy racer and 220 bhp would be more than ample for me, I have 16v heads etc here but that's far too ambitous for my limited car skills but will keep them for future use.

Hi Guy's,

Ok am now going to give it another go (read as actually getting better half to do it) we have just got in this evening, lets see if the rubber band on the forum server is fully wound up....it may take a while.

She is demanding (full stop) a under her nose as she try's the upload.
