i'll try and pop by illyan, depending on how much work im allocated for tommorow. Should know by 4pm today if i can or not.

Im guessing your gonna be there most of the day. Ask Kate for the secret stash of biscuits behind her shop counter.

Cant recommend Mr Sandwich man in the van more highly. Chicken Tikka Baguet is the daddy!. Just ask Redrobin aswell!  :wink:



If you can that'll be great.  I'm in my car just about to set-off and should be there for 9am

I think I'll be working all day else I'd have popped over for a coffee with you.  I'm sure that you'll be well catered for anyway.

Oh and avoid those bl00dy Chicken Tikka things, they stink  :sick:

Thanks.. my car just made 224.8bhp on the rolling road.  Keith mentioned that the engine was a bit tight.  I have done 22k miles on it but they are 95% motorway miles and I don't thrash the car so its probably why its a bit low  :rolleyes:  :cry:  I'm still on my original tyres - Michelin Pilots which have plenty of thread left so it hasn't been abused until this afternoon  :evil: :evil:  :grin: :grin: :grin:

Made 278.5bhp on the rollers after remap which is ok.  The car does feel seriously fast though - it reminds me of the acceleration my Subaru STI had.  Still, its onto Stage 2 next week with a lot more mods to come.  It does feel a bit strange though as the mod has made my driving style much more conservative.  Its too quick to unleash all the time without losing your licence.  It made driving a bit more boring in that sense as I have to be careful with the pedal now.  But for everyday driving, you can progress with ease.  Strangely, the car felt aound 10-15 slower when doing around 70-80 on the motorway - like i was doing 60-70?!  Anyone else had this strange effect after a mod?  Or maybe JKM just remapped the speedo to show a much higher speed than indicated  :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin:

Wait until you've had the other mods done too Illyun :wink:

The more power you get, the more you want. It becomes an addiction :evil:

I've just had my daily shot coming home in the last 15 mins :rolleyes: at totally road legal speeds :wink:

22k miles and still on the original tyres.....shame on you :laugh:

I'm nearly out of my second set of front boots at 13k miles :embarassed:

Glad you are enjoying the newly re-vitalised motor Illyun...now get out there and give it some welly for the lads :cool:

Sorry i didnt make it down illyan, there is a good possibilty of coming down nxt wednesday as im sure im day off that day and not reliant on finishing early ( got stuck on someones roof and had to call for assistance LOL). Hope your motors going well now,  i bet you can feel abit more shove right accross the rev range (if its anything like gtijames ed30) with the miltek, it will go and sound awesome.

Looking foward to seeing more accurate graphs  :lipsrsealed:
