Not that great TBH. However it seems to be overfuelling all the way through the rev range and it can run more advance on the dizzy. Added to the fact the air filter is clogged and I've never changed the plugs it's reckoned it can get close to 140. Well happy with the curve though.

The curve is nice and linear. Any way of reducing the loss from flywheel -> wheels or is that normal for a mk2?

It's got a lightened flywheel, I don't know if that effects RR read outs?

The only way to lose transmission loss is to for straight cut gears in the box but they're well expensive!!!!
