@vRSAlex at AKS has been grafting to get the mechanical work finished.  She's off to @rtechniki tomorrow for a serving of GowerPower!

After a linear graph with with linear delivery for trackdays, hard cut limiter and left foot braking with switchable boost setting :-)

@Bignod00 's felt great on track so Im looking forward to getting it back and getting a trackday booked!

 :driver:  Let's see what the TTE is like in person

Neither me!

Just sold the AKS tuning fabricated battery tray and Braille battery to free up a few quid.

Will be nice not too have to worry about remembering to isolate the battery or leaving electrics on without the engine running lol

Ordered the plastic battery box as I sold mine before

Alex re-works them and removes the balance shaft all together.  Looks expensive that link!

Appreciate it mate. I still had my old battery tray. I just ordered the claim and bolt. Ordered the plastic box too. The Leon only comes with a cheap felt cover normally

OMG! I 've been reading what I missed on your thread from October, i think. Got married and I had to stay away from the car and everything related for a while to prepare everything, travel etc.  :signLOL:
I really love your patience, passion and dedication, and for sure the car will be an atomic bomb, but I would have pushed mine of a cliff already.   
I hope you still know how to drive because I'd love to see some laptimes.  :driver:
