Weather was lovely mate really dry, civics were a type r running low 14's and my mates who's was a 1.5 now a 1.6 vtech and he got a 15.1, dunno if its cos I'm using a v70 boost controller on my 850 but my boost on wot isn't as much as it is on half throttle and its inconsistent and pulses rather than boosts where it should be

Funny you should say about the boost, I ran a new v70 Boost control solenoid and that also done a very similar thing, As soon as i fitted the forge it all was good.

I thought it was down to my Auto map on the Manual car at first.

Like i say the forge unos sorted it out no probs,

and the rods mate, very easy to do the rods on an auto with an mbc.

You went quite a bit quicker with a powerstart.

Yes you are correct, i'v only got about 305bhp and 345lb/ft. It would go much better with a turbo, or two. :biggrin:
