Need some good logs of the map as it looks to be pushing 2 bar if not more of boost even in 2nd gear!   :surprised:

It may be work getting a 30 psi/2 bar boost gauge too with an alarm setting.

I don't want to see the turbo sh*tting itself.

Indeed. I certainly don't want a dead engine as money is getting more scarce with my little boy

Blame the boy rather than your addiction to modding!

My little girl also costs me a small fortune!

Car is getting dropped off at BCS for a new system Saturday 18th.  Leaving it with them for the week.  I really hope it sounds as good as my Miltek & performs well  :party: 

Im looking forward to getting out in the car for a decent drive now it has the new APR map on!  :evilgrin:  Have only managed 100 miles before it tipped down with snow.

The 996 Turbo brake setup feels great and the discs fill the wheels more than the 312's lol

Heressome pics of fitting.....

Shifter bushings planned for when the box comes off / diff fitted.  I bought them about 2 years ago but they didnt end up getting fitted.

A mini chassis mod too  :innocent:

BCS system next week & Diff / alignment are the next big bits and probably last mods for a while.

Carbon bonnet & Lightweight seats are probaby for autumn now.  TDs need a refurb and some  sticky boots.

I have a spare lightweight battery too  :innocent:
