That's the torque, power was 367bhp. It'll be a little less now though as I've wound the boost back to keep it safe. As for the xenons I;ve just taken them off and listed them on eBay lol, couldn't live with the looks of them especially how much better the standard headlights look.

Ah yeah. My mistake..still though! Bet its a riot to drive.

Have you considered darkening the inside of the xenon's? There's one like it on Pistonheads and looks far better IMO.
I had done yeah but trying to get them to seal afterwards can be a pain and can often cause condensation to form behind the glass.
Been to EFI again to run my car on Chris' RR to see what kind of figures the car was now producing after winding the boost back to make it safe.
As you can see I've lost a fair chunk of peak power and torque compared to last time but the key thing is the car is now safe to drive through the out rev range, plus I've not got any torque spikes anymore which has improved drivability.

Dangerously lean yeah, was ok up until 5krpm but after that it was getting in to melted engine territory.

Really? Was the AFR showing this? Is it using an off the shelf map on stock ecu?
Yeah AFRs were getting in to the 13's way above the 11:8 regarded safe zone. Just a generic dreamscience map on the standard ECU yeah.
Evo 8 MR
Does it have a manual boost controller?
No, it's running direct, a boost controller is probably something I'll look in to at somepoint though.
Evo 8 MR
What do you mean direct? How did you turn the boost down?
ECU controls the boost, i.e pegs it back if it picks up a problems somewhere. You can manually adjust the boost though via the adjustable actuator on the turbo.
Evo 8 MR
Oh you mean on the wastegate? Are you going to stick with the map that's on it or go custom?

No he means the actuator, the actuator controls the wastegate

Yeah, that looks stunning.
Love the shots you both got of mine from yesterday. Further proof why it doesn't need silver wheels Joe
Still not convinced. But if you're happy... Haha

Indeed but it was late and I was tired.

Awesome photos. But you shouldn't have mentioned the wheels again lol
So much broken on this page.
Black wheels > silver wheels
Black wheels > silver wheels
Silver wheels are so boring though. If the car was a completely standard factory fresh example then yeah I'd agree and tbh chances are it will see some track time.
They're no more boring than black tbf!
Black/White/Silver are all the same in terms of excitement, if you had them luminous green I'd agree, but you don't.
You'll never listen, but OEM would look so fresh and clean, even with a couple of trackdays under their belt. The way I see it; you spend time cleaning and waxing the car, you've taken measures to prevent rust and to keep the car in top presentation, therefore it isn't a dirty track ****, and therefore I fully agree with Gally, it deserves the OEM look (just on the wheels).
All IMO of course.

It's all subjective at the end of the day, I prefer black wheels you prefer silver. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but I'll just do what I'm happy with.
Could be worse though I could have done this
