All set and off to the Ring then???

Loads of my mates are off too, lucky sods. Apparently there's loads of astroturf gone up around the track's edge, which is absolutely lethal with even so much as dew on it. Avoid!

Glad to hear it's all ok, have a good trip  :happy2:
Sideways yo!

nice one steve, unfortunately, my low pressure fuelling was maxing out at 390, so looking forward to the fuel pump upgrade, as Ive already got the upgraded rods :D (and WMI!!)  :party:

Try to steer clear of the USP low pressure upgrade.  Bad experience of it in the past.

Does yours have a less capable low pressure fuel system due to it being a sport originally?

It seems like they just vary, steves was very capable, not sure if the same part number or not. considering they are only rated for 200hp, anything over that is considered a bonus, so 387hp isnt that bad really.

So new revision low pressure fuel pump should be more consistent in delivery and/or higher pressure Steve?  :smiley:

Over the top mod list ;o)
