I'm loving that wing box Chris - hope you polished the swirls out of it before you fitted it :P :lol:

Just got the bosch motorsport fuel pump to fit and 2 new front inner wing liners,the old ones were a bit grubby and then Dave Rowe has to do his mapping thing and then its cleaning time,got to catch old Clark,we have a guy from Sweden coming to see it on monday.
And we have to change the 2 red samco pipes coming off the header tank for black ones.

Stone guards are just smaller mudflaps Stu,just enough to keep the sills from getting a bashing.
The car has yet to be mapped so I will be up Matts all weekend cleaning.

Matt and Dave Rowe did some mapping on the car last week,all went very well they both seemed chuffed,since then Matt has fitted a stronger spring in the waste-gate,put in cooler running plugs, the air-injector has been mounted on rubber bobbins,a 4 bar map sensor has been fitted then its just the Spec C fuel pump with a bosch motorsport pump to fit and then the final map should be approx 540-560bhp.

We fitted this Spec C washer bottle as its smaller and looks cool.

We are going to put in 2 maps aswell .

[quote="The Swede"]How differently does it drive, Chris?

To be honest I have not driven it yet,it still needs the fuel pump changing and then a bit more mapping to complete things,Matt Clark said it was fast when he drove it on the first mapping session,so it should be better now its had a few more bits altered/changed,I have not been that bothered about driving it,but thats because I'm old and just like looking at it.
The bits we changed were the plugs,a 4 bar map sensor,bosch fuel pump,and Matt is upping the flow on the SXfuel regulator,he did say that the 800cc injectors were nearly maxed out,but we did not want to go to bigger ones as they can give starting problems.
