so what did you get on the Dyno?It's not finished yet Mark as we ran outta time & it may need a software upgrade, perhaps Adam can explain more what really went on as it was a long day, from looking at the screen i think 240bhp at the wheels but i may have read it wrong as the graph was complex, as i say it's going back to be finished and then i'll have a print out etc to study.

Basically, the car is not producing the boost that the ECU is asking it to. It's as if the ECU is not seeing full load, even though throttle is 100%. We know that the boost is too low because the ignition is actually more advanced than it should be, ie opposite to retarding. It's not just top end either - it's everywhere. Car is fast, but not fast enough!!!

ps. Fueling is ok, so it's not lean.

Well an inch aint much i guess and i did want lower hence the mass debate over coilovers etc, but like Hamish said, going too low can upset alsorts else and at the end of the day i have to live with it day in day out, when it's got 19s on and the suspension settles i'm sure it will look better, that pic was only 30min after it had been done.
