nick_d OP My life on the forum Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 1,829 kidderminster	Flea has spent some time on mapping today and in his words "got it running pretty nice"! Boost is peaking at 1.65-1.7 bar & tailing of to 1.2 bar at redline... Flea is going run a few more boost tests to see if he can get it to hold a bit flatter tommorrow and maybe get her on the dyno to see where we're at??!! He also said the car has seriously been put through its paces today with 'NO' issues.... There is a God!! Nick 368bhp @ 1.5 bar

nick_d OP My life on the forum Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 1,829 kidderminster	On the dyno today boost peaked at 1.6 bar, tailing off to 1.2 at redline! RESULTS: 367 bhp & 318 ft lb Well chuffed! Not quite there yet though as Fleas thinks he may be able to get in excess of 380 if he can get boost to hold a bit better, but as is the Apexi won't allow it! So going adjust the waste gate a little with a smigde more pre load & hopefully the boost will hold a little flatter in turn making more power! Not bad considering the guy who rebuilt the turbo said that the blower would be good for 350 max!! Nick 368bhp @ 1.5 bar
