more updates need new boost controller as the one I have is crap, it didn't matter what you did to the controller right down closed or right open it was always above 1 bar give or take a few psi. Previously was running about 8psi previously with the controller in there glancing at the gauge was about 16/17psi which was way to high very very fast but to much.
Need to get something ordered tonight thats better and in car adjustable and get it down to 12/14psi

well sorted the boost controller out now boosting at just under a bar now  also fitted new 185cc injectors and 4 bar fpr courtesy of the legend ryanmt  running some injector cleaner stuff through just now and it looks like a fuel filter change is on cards as it looks like the rough running is down to crap in lines and filter.
As when left to run with the stuff in you can noticeably tell that its getting better. Oh also got my subframes for my elise seats

Ok time for an update, road testing has gone well boost is set at 12psi now, the new 185 cc injectors and 4bar fpr have been fitted thanks to the legend ryanmt. Also thanks to my mate Tom for doing one of the other jobs I needed to he rewired the fan and added a manual switch to all done very neatly, provided weather holds out tomorrow I will clean the underside of the sump and sort the oil return properly plus kurust the underside of the boot them zinc primering the lot.
Bar that mapping booked in for Sat 18th, got a few bits on way like upper n lower braces plus the more important WB with gauge  Got a few extra longer ish term things like Elise seats, fitting the bigger m/c, rear lines and AP 2 Pots In terms of bodywork will be redoing the spoiler, mirror tops and front bumper in next few weeks obviously got interior related stuff thats still needs to be sorted out but that can be done in time, plenty of little things that will need to be done aswell to neaten things up but again will take time on that stuff to get it good

Sam easy lol
Wayne it will be Andy "predator" Hammond doing the mapping
My geordie friend testing has been done with a mf2 bodged on for now just to set boost pressure and nothing else just to get it running roughly, actuator is standard 8.5psi but got a controller on to up to 12psi. MF2 if setup right is ok and no problems but mine aint lol but will do just to test few things.
Last time it wasn't that great as I had loom problems

no gti is going to a mate hopefully this 1.4 16v will be in a flat arch of some sort but that as I said is as and when lol yeah takes time hence why I am taking time with this one. Doing the right thing save for the right parts get it done right first time
cheers twist chances of this being on track aren't high but who knows I may do Llandow next year

Okies since I got more parts means more graft on weekend will fit the upper n lower braces, fit right coolant top hose, sort oil return better, rebleed system with good coolant.
Also will trial fit the AP 2 pots plus 283mm discs see what they are like will be fitted eventually with some other upgrades, one step closer to fitting the elise seats to as got the subframes for them any pics of parts
