No worries mate  :happy2:
I went and collected 100liters of methanol yesterday,  so i thought i would try 100% meth for the drive home!   It was epic, but not sure how long the engine will last me doing this  :stupid:

The snow performance kit it setup to run 100% when over 11 psi.
i was running 60m/40w

It was slipping on the dyno against the eddy brake on the last few logging sessions... no you just gone and killed it..

Cannot wait until we get this down pod, the linear power should make for a good time.

where did you get the clutch and flywheel from James?

I'm tempted to go to R-Tech to get mine bought & fitted  :smiley:

Today I nearly blew myself up!!   I kept smelling petrol in the car and thought it was due to my catch can venting to air at the moment.  (Forge are sending me a replacement!)

Further investigation I found my rs4 valve is dripping fuel! Not looking forward to removing it! Looks like it is crossed threaded: fighting:

I wondered why my car was an arse to start in the morning, due to no rail pressure! :sick:

My RS4 valve that had been on 12 months was potentially buggered so for the cost I might add it to the servicing along with oil & cam follower
