Ive put 200k's on it and i need to do another 300 to 800k's under recommendation from Mal before belting it. Simon and i took it to titans to make sure that the computer was happy being a manual car now. They hooked up there workshop diagnostic system to it and the car hasnt brought up any codes and now thinks it a mk11 6 speed manual. Simon put a nice soft tune in it so i can finish running it in then it will be off to the dyno tuesday and wednesday to see how power it makes.... The throttle response from the nispro plenum and cooler is amazing. It builds boost that quickly its not funny. I've had to work really hard to keep my foot of the throttle until the box is run in and im struggling..... The gearbox is great. The shifter is very nice with a short throw and great 2 to 3rd shift. Its a little tight at the moment but it will free up once its got a few k's on it.All i can say is bring on sunday.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That package that we sent you will work great with the engine upgrade, enjoy the drive and let us know how it goes. Mal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll pay for the postage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm giving my car a good shine and wax today so even if it doesnt go real fast it will blind anyone trying to race me My poor clutch I'm being a tight arse for a month so I can afford the xtreme clutch and flywheel, looks like installation will be around this time next month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NO BOV + POD = Rattle snake!!!!!Whats that valve thing under the pod plumbing??....blueish reflection....I gather that is usied in conjuntion with the e-boost??Also those stereo fuses might give away to ford that your car has the edit!!!!!!!!!!!!Hey will I be needing clamps for the silicone.....I might do grab some now?
