Haven't updated this in a while.

Have since fitted a nrg quick release boss and have the car mapped.

It made 425whp at 1.2ish bar which is about 480 to 500 flywheel depending on correction calculation and assumed drivetrain loss.

Awesome result. Bet you're well happy with that! Got a dyno graph?

I take it going EWG has fixed all of the issues you had with the IWG setup?

There is a graph somewhere but the rpm wasn't reading properly. No more issues with turbo setup now which is nice. Well apart from the fact twin screamer pipes are rather loud lol. Super happy with how it goes now though! Full boost is on by 3000rpm sometimes earlier and it has N/A like throttle response! The powerband is huge, the boost starts to tails off a little after 7500 but you honestly can't tell it's relentless through the entire rev band.

480-500bhp and 380ft lbs
 
My future looks bleak lol. Been putting this off for a while now.

Been a while lol.

Was thrashing the car around at 1.4/1.5bar for a few weeks estimated to be making 500whp. Then blew the motor by suspected fuel slosh lol. Car has now sat for a few months untouched. me and a friend are going to pull the engine out next week.

Decided to fit my seat earlier i had bought a day before I blew the engine so I lost interest in making it fit lol. But it's in and doesnt rub the door card so happy days.

It has to come back out so I can weld a seatbelt bracket on and lower the rear another slot. Will order up a matching seat shortly. Fairly happy with how they look and fit. The seat weighs in at 7.5kg on my scales and stock was about 15 so decent weight saving and they are surprisingly comfy for a fixed bucket

I just wanted fixed buckets that werent going to rub the door so I started looking into cars that use fixed seats. Lotus porsche etc they all have cramped cabins and require a narrow wing set which is also what you need with the fd.
