so when the teins going on

Not sure yet Ben , because I am considering whether to take out the HICAS

I am getting a 'kick' occasionally when driving , also was going to send them to Tein for a refurb before I fit them .

So looks like they will be done on 'phase 3' when I touch up the body work and fit the wings and stuff.

Phase 2 will be mapping and beefing up the Fuel delivery and AFM's

I have a rolling road day at Castle Coombe on the 18th Oct so it will most probably be things to do over the winter .

According to Tein the set I have are adjustable to '16 postions' they may be different to yours

cant wait to get it back - its been up in the midlands for a month
bit of a unwanted surpise needing the exhaust Cam though

Yep mine have 16 positions too ..

Have you removed the HICAS / or fitted a Lock out Bar?

Just had MIJ on the phone and they have informed me that car has forged pistons

which may be a bad thing because I am tempted to go for bigger Tubbies

The bad news is the Exhaust Cam is shot

hence the delay

Not yet - will at some point - but it handles fantastically already - the main thing is to run the car in KM's as ecu etc thinks in KM and not MPH

Got my car back today

at last

Bloody post office is closed till monday so I cant drive it until itd taxed... will give it a good clean tomorrow , got to do about 500 miles just to make sure the head is OK then remap ....

Driving on the stock ECU is crap - feels so slow oh well just a few days to go .
