Thanks John, sorted, fluoro craft paint. :? I realise that's one small step beyond bugger all but at least there'll be bloody big door numbers too.

Looking forward to seeing a whole lot of new faces, but familiar personae, on the weekend.

Haha,
Don't want to say yet. Want to see how much difference it makes first.. Ill show u the dyno printout on sunday :)
When i built it i got the head done for midrange torque, which is what the dyno showed today, Quite substantial increase more than first thought.
Still more power to make as im not running a tps atm which is hurting the torque and top end also the map signal is running a little bit funny as the vacume is fluctuating a bit i need a better vacume point.
Once i sort this out and get cams it will be a little rocket.

The best thing is as it is with standard ecu it safley made 94kw, (but torque is way down compared with after market ecu), meaning i can just plug it back in and the airflow meter and away we go
Thanks to David from mx5 mania for spending several hours on it today getting it right!! :). The car was being very stubborn today!!

Holy crap that was fun! In the last race there was .15 seconds between that pesky weevil and myself, what a great scrap! He is like a rash, just won't go away, one slip and he is through. Great driving though Chris, I have a bit to learn.
Will post some video, that last one was crazy.
