I've still got mine, going to have it repaired then keep it as a spare/tool for mapping only. The ecu I have now is a standard 4.3 850R auto ecu which has my M.A Developments map flashed on to it, so still have the advantages of the live setup but now on a normal no TT ecu
Awesome update paul seems a few people have problems with tt

Shame, because it help to open up the world of tuning to the 850's, without going over to the 4.4, which isn't a totally straight forward swop.
Todays BIG update!
It has passed its MOT!!!!!

Small update, the Mistress has done 450miles now, apart from a few teething problems, been going well, boosts to 0.8, this is because it has no boost controller on at the moment, the compressor is linked straight to the actuator.
Even like this, she is quick!
Thought I'd ave a look today at the oil leak, which is getting worse, yes, its still leaking from the front of the engine, but, its not that bad, where it is pouring from, is the turbo return pipe, where it goes into the block, its not the normal Volvo type fitting, but a machined block with a thread for a union on it.
This has been pushed in to the hole, and chemical metaled in, guess where its leaking from.............................................. .
