Got the car back last night and im really impressed with it, had a few problems puttin it in but they are all sorted now..
Got ARP rod bolts, lightened and balanced crank, chipped ECU although im not sure which one, and a few other bits, the head was ported and polichsed but we had a few problems with it so ive got a diff head now and one to play with later 
It just pulls and pulls.. the only thing ive chased is a 182 clio and he wasnt gettin very far and wouldnt pull over to let me passed..
the torque in these engines are amazing..
Big cheers to my mate ACEMAN from off here for fitting the engine and gettin it all sorted for me and Lee Mitchell for the engine mount..

Let the fun begin

was this chip in the engine to begin with or did you ask for an unknown map to be placed in your ECU?

would the ecotec pipe not be rather restrictive?
