As I see it when you get it mapped you want the only restriction to be te turbo if possible.
My exhaust was restricting me and I was gutted!

the ko3/s manifold isn't restrictive.

Well I was told by nick to port #3 as it is restrictive and it helps tr turbo to spoil up faster. As I se it porting it can only do good  :grin:

Yeah I cant wait now to be honest,
I was seriously considering building my own but I bought the THS front mount at a reasonable price so I couldnt say no really.

Stroll on 5th August hopefully, I will ask Nick to update this thread throughout the week etc to see the results and pushing that little k03s  :cool:

I hope so mate and if it dont blow up the wheels will need spraying/refurbing next.
My priority at the moment is the engine as I know the car will never be a show car.

Ohh an I need bigger brakes as the 1.6 brakes are cool at the moment but I would imagine they wouldnt last long with nearly 250bhp and stopping a Bora  :laugh:

Parrrr im going to go 288mm set up with decent drilled and grooved discs etc
I dont drive like an idiot or on track so I wont be thrashing it everywhere to be able to kill the brakes.

To be honest the 280mm are pretty cool now so I may even consider buying drilled and grooved discs with a decent set of pads.

my 288's with drilled and grooved all round aint much if any better than the standard discs i had so save yourself a few quid and just get the mintex standard discs  :wink:

they just look nice behind the wheel  :grin:

Be interesting to see what Nick can do on yours Jamie with the parts off mine.  His new mapping software might let him find a little area that can be improved.

You dont know how tempted I am to make you put WMI on it....but then you might take crown of highest AGU k03s lol
