Probably a very controversial post as it should possibly be in help and mod , but I don't think so . . .

Just interested (wierd) really , in what your car sits on at idle ?

Also state engine size etc ?

Cos its a wee beasty lol

Never been a fan of a low idle. The car is used for trackdays and thrashing so I'm not concerned with economy or traffic manners, I prefer to maintain good oil pressure and flow of coolant through the engine
