well took the car in this morning and got it on the rollers it made 142.5 the way it was. which i am happy with since it was over fuelling. hoping to get 148-150 after the chip.

anyway left the car with him came back 4 hours later to find out he couldnt fit it. i was told that my car is one of few that use a high frequency air flow meter. meaning i need a conveter to put it into low frequency for the unichip then another converter to put it back to high frequency to send it to the ecu.

so got it booked in on wednesday night, so might be able to get a couple more little bits done buy then.

i am using a k&n filter right now which i think is letting the rest of it down a bit. what is the best induction kit that i can get?

the guy told me my rev limit didnt need raised but i could see on the graph that it was hitting the limiter and still climbing but i wasnt going to question him. other than that he was descent.

the head was skimmed on two different ocassions then it was done again when it got ported and plished to give higher compression which gives you more torque.

once...twice....three times kevs cars been off the road
