Update from my Friday tune: Car only made 271kw on the dyno so was a bit dissappointed given I achieved 293kw last time with less mods. Simon said the rollers on his dyno are no good causing a bit of wheel spin so I am going back to have the tune checked out and a new power run in two weeks when he gets the new rollers.

THe car did pick up about 20kw from its first run so hopefully looking at over 300kw when it gets a proper run.

Numbers are numbers, but on the road the car feels great with a very strong mid range. Might have to head down to Kwinana soon for a run.

Looks like you are enjoying your tea at least Grug, haha.

Cruise will be on soon, was talking to Simon at XFT and he may be having an event that we could have a cruise after. No dates set on that one yet though so I think I'm gonna have to make a map up while we wait! Stay tuned.

Called panel beaters, the guy thinks the T will be a write off based on:

17k which he quoted RAC for repairs as there's all front panels to be replaced on the car

whole side of the car needs repairs/replacing

airbag

spare tyre + jack needs replacing (stolen)

few interiour parts need fixing/replacing

mechanics yet to go over it.

I asked him if my xcal was still in there as it was there when I saw the car at the holding yard and he says he never saw it... but would double check.

Car booked to go to Wilkinsons this afternoon who should have a quote by tomorrow.

Anything more than 2k I assume will be a write off.

He says that he thinks the suspension is damaged and may need repairing aswell as something to do with the power steering.

Yeah cheers. I saw it in there when I visited the car at the holding yard, and I asked if I could take it with me but the person there said it should be fine as everything should still be in it when it goes to the p&p to get assessed.
