Sounds like you have a safe tune timing wise at the moment which is good so you can get some on the car .

JDModified is tuning my car already making around 500hp at 13psi so you might want to check them out,every tuner in the uk seems to tune on the silly silly safe side .

You could end up with the same power running less boost .

Any water /meth being used ???

Im keen for JDModified to push the car upto the same boost level if there happy to do so im getting full boost by 4200 rpm cheers Lee.
I am maxing out my fuel system as it stands at the moment, so my next mods are a couple of 044s with a built in surge tank. Built engine should be completed and finished by the end of the year in which case I would like to be seeing no less than 900HP, so all this is more or less just a mock up and an example of what my lil snail can do! haha, I am also keen on watching your build thread, would be epic to see your car put some serious numbers down from the sounds of it! As far as cooling mods go, I am not running any water/meth injection just yet as my charge temps are actually relatively low, but I am just running a 14 role mocal oil cooler. As for my tyre choice, I am still running the stock configuration until I get my new wheels on the car, but for now I am running 245/40/17s are the rear with Continental Sport Contact 3s, I know I need to run either some AD08s or a good cut slick, but given the current weather conditions, I prefer to run tyres that has good water management. But thank you for the kind advice as well!

Wow, I've frightened myself a few times in mine but yours must be absolutely mental
It's quite an animal on the road, and when you get into the higher gears, it's all about keeping the foot down and taking a few brave pills, 3rd gear and beyond is savage!

Thanks mate! I got them used and my mate known as Fyse had them, so I made a offer and got them!

I live around the corner, I am in Islington just off Cally! I am attending a few shows this year, BHP Show (I have my own stand and track session), 30-130 MLR (GTROC member), Japfest (civiclife stand), and obviously the epic Mimms meets!

Nice one JDModified are hoping to have my car at Dyno dynamics at Eurospec on the 30th this month come along you can have a chat with james,

PS a full blown 340 intank fuel pump out flows the 044 at 50psi fuel pressure so if you got a double hanger with id 2000,s you will be good to go .

So competition between you and Glen Mr Pitts (lol) Lee .

George, your car looks clean and fast. NIOP is one of my favourite colours.
