one other thing???????? my dash shows up the milage when the keys arent in but as soon as i put the keys in and start her up it jst says 'cerr' and then flashes to '--------' ???? any ideas?

Sounds like an ecu fault. It should only flash when the oil change or service 1+2 are due.

There is a way to reset the service indicator without plugging anything in, do a search for the procedure and try that first to see if it clears the fault.

Doesn't mention anything to do with the internal mods needed to get these figures!!!

But 8v has a turbo kit and he mentions 230bhp - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Z97IDjE2W8

Just spotted it's listed as a 1.8L, so must be a G60 block :rolleyes:
