I was more than surprised. The ecu/mapping work has been brilliant. In particular the idle is absolutely perfect, even on the base map to me and others it sounded spot on

Cheers Boz  you're right though theres always something else to do that looms in the back of your mind. Got a list as long as my arm already, but time to chill out for a while and get back on top of the money situation

The bits that add up were insane, theres always so much more that crops up throughout thats never even considered likely to cause a problem in the initial list.
Oh yeah and after one of the questions asked to me today you did get the majority of the blame for me going for it and doing the conversion lol
