Hi Duncan

Its funny how different the car is on the road to how the graph shows, remember the graph only shows a snap shot of info as to how the car is i have no problem keeping the car on boost the hard part is holding on to the steering wheel :lol:

Your spot on with the turbo its a GT35 i had a custom tubular manifold made for the project which took a while and ment loosing a few other items due to room issues 8)
