Not sure it's wise running it without the pump... go steady.

There's a lot of threads on the FI forum about Greddy base maps being super rich. Some are so rich they wont run so im sure it will of been fine. Still as you say best wait until its mapped.

Honestly mate, I wouldn't #### about with it. It's very easy to blow your engine up if you don't know what you're doing or at least if you can't measure the parameters, AFR/knock/fuel pressure, in real time.

S2000 engines are expensive too.

Patience is a virtue

I'm keeping an eye on your install Raz thanks, so far i have resisted the temptation (apart from lending my sister £2k) but i have a job interview in a few weeks, needless to say if i get the job I'd be able to afford the kit in a month easily (fingers crossed).

Though i wonder if it would be DD friendly?, if i get the job then i need to use my car to get to work (only a 15min journey).

I just cant make my mind up either this kit or 2nd hand computech SC, I've testdrove a SC s2000 but not a turbo, i presume this is a small turbo so better lower down?, what about prolonged periods at high rpms?.

I like the fact this kit is pretty plug'n'play and has everything in the kit (so i can install myself) for a good price. I presume you would get close to 400BHp at the flywheel with bolt on's I'd like to keep it under 10psi.

Cheers
