they are apparantly very rare and allegedly worth a bit of cash if in good condition. will have to clean mine up and sell it on if i dont like it. for now it has comedy value.

tonight amazing updates
jack one car up.
remove tie bars, bottom arms and press old bearings out then fit awesome new polybushes. theyre awesome.
seen as awesome jacking the front up raises the rear, take rear wheel off and let mr jdm attach some wires to the abs sensor
then no further pics, but basically ecu now has wheel speed sensor so can adjust the duty of the boost solenoid in each gear. same as what apexi does, just ecu does it all instead. currently have 0.6 bar in 1st and 2nd gear and thats as far as it got as it was getting too late and i needed to come home for a poo. the difference taking the boost out of second makes is amazing. it actually grips. so will carry on playing with it, try and get about 1 bar in 3rd gear then full in 4th and onwards. nicely the emerald stores 3 maps that can be changed via a switch on the dash, so this will be saved to a different map to the full power one. just so when i want 20 odd psi in 3rd gear to leave massive black lines on the tarmac i can.
thanks for reading this awesome update.

That's pretty damn cool being able to limit the boost in lower gears, do you think that'll improve the 1/4 mile time?

i can hope so. grip means better acceleration than wheelspinning does, so i can hope.

oh, roll cage, fuel pumps, swirl pot, lower tie bar brackets (like a plank i sold them to ste L) paint inside, make some ducting to air filter from a bit of drain pipe, fit 15" wheels and grind calipers down so they fit under, carbon interior door cards, fibreglass boot lid, perspex windows and some other stuff probably and some more mapping at a later date after fuel pumps.
