Did a 70MPH run on motorway with CC set, average consumption was about 35 as per trip computer so I guess it is technically possible but not achievable by myself. yea, btw what happened, parked the car or any actual issues?

with mpg I find that I need to sit at 65mpg to get anything good, as soon as the turbo starts spooling mpg drops so I might as well be doing more than 70.
Car is just going to be left parked up now as I have my partners corsa to run around in, was a tough decision but now not going to use it probably till next year and save some funds for forging the engine. Car is still sound though so no problems..

yeh but MOT is now up today. But im looking at getting a full system to replace it anyway so cant really be bothered to do any work on it if im replacing the whole thing soon anyway. Might as well get it all done properly and better than just fixing that problem.

Just a small update on mine. Had some minor tweak done yesterday with wastegate, when having gearbox mount tweaked, and car become a bit more nippy - looks like WG was a bit too loose after recent manifold job and didnt build pressure as good as should.
Yesterdays test clocked 8.5sec so a whole 1s less that week ago. Nice

Thought I would update here. Managed to get a run in, had to start at 50mph as anything slower resulted in wheel spin. Did one pull 50mph to 90mph although I think I dumped the clutch before 90.
GH010816_1579292724545_high_1 by Dom Hartland, on Flickr Nice little engine management light, then engine message popped up so as you can see car is still a working progress. Going back in to get mapped in couple weeks though.

Nice pull.
From the video the car is sounds subtle, which I quite like given the mega top end shown. |

Thanks, yeh I have 2 small boxes which I think are muflers to keep the noise down. Had a straight through exhaust before that which was unbearable.
