Sorry not sure how I missed replying to this Neil, As Chip says though no longer living up North so had to leave Wills. I now like in Milton Keynes as the other half got a job done here.

Looks good Oli :) if going supercharged I would put a keywayed crank pulley on while doing the belts.
Do you still run aircon? If not I'd be tempted to swap to 172 cup engine loom as that will get rid of all the ABS loom :)
Simtek, mcal, Polevolt, vehicle wiring products are the places I'd be looking at but its an odd one so may not be listed. I'd give Neil at Polevolt a call as I'm sure he would be able to get hold of them. I've seen one before so they are definitely available just depends what manufacturer makes...
Have you got any idea of lap times you can do in your current car? Thats really all it boils down to :)
I’m sure you will enjoy it as the racing is great fun!
What do you normally do? :)

Other than the engine the other work...
That wasn’t a chap with a stopwatch either was full data logging :) Next time I go on my other windows laptop i’ll try put some traces up to show where the differences come from. I was genuinely surprised myself. Last time I bought dz03’s they were 105+vat a tyre so its not silly money also they...
I did 195's r888's v's 205 dz03 and there was 1.5 second difference per lap over a 50 second circuit. I genuinely couldn't believe the difference but went back out and 10 more laps on each tyre and every lap was stupidly consistent. Doesn't help against the RSR's I know but they are slower than...
