    Similar spec to before, so in theory, similar power
    But it’s not been on the rollers, so don't really know

    What I do know is it’s over boosting, even with the MBC at minimum still heading towards 1.6 bar, not good on standard rods

    Hi all,

    thinking of selling my Team Dynamics wheels, to get some with a different offset, so I can run a wider tyre

    would anyone be interested in buying my existing sets?
    1 set is brand new with brand new Toyo R888, never been on the car
    And the other set, as seen in the last post, have only seen 2 track days and have a used set of Toyo R888s on

    just checking my options at this moment in time

    JT

    potentially interested, what are the size of the alloys and tires. Wondering if they will fit my P1 S40 T5 and looking for a 2nd set of alloys specifically for track.

    yes, just had some Ksport 8 pots fitted. They only just fit under the 18s which has changed my plans as I was looking at getting some 17" alloys for track and keeping the 18s for road.

    HELP!!!

    Car won’t start

    I have no voltage coming from the ecu to the fuel pump relay.

    Car was fine in November on its last trackday, haven’t touched it since.
    Went to start it yesterday and noticed the pumps not priming

    Tried with my TT and a standard ECU

    Any ideas??

    Took me ages to find it on olive when I first had her, when Gul let me down it didn't take long to find it and fix it, RAC man was well impressed how much more I knew about the 850 than he did, he pulled me from a busy spot to somewhere quieter and I fiddled with the wires and off she went again. Got me home from South Wales and then did a proper fix on her.

    Well swapped out the grey relay attached to the rad from a working car
    And it still won’t pull in the fuel pump relay

    Guess I’m gonna have to go deeper
