well clocked 500 miles today since the engine was put in, and now its running 100% 
took it for a little drive with fad in the car so he could gauge the performance, pretty sure he thought it was quick
also had a blat down the back road by brand hatch where i think for a 2-4 min periode fad was quite scared  (and i had visions of a AK stylee moment when speeding towards a wall) sorry mate
pretty happy for traxs next week though, just need to get rev counter and speedo wired in

But this weathers the worst for taking your car for a spin in, I wait until the temperature drops in the evenings....makes so much of a difference!

So did you have to build up the performance gradually whilst running in?
