Are you tuning it yourself or using the HPT gear purely as a remote interface for your tuner?If you're tuning it yourself jump on the HPT forum as well.

From memory it made 298kW at 12PSI. We had just raised the boost which made the 309 before running out of time. At that boost I could also heard audible signs of valve float up top, hence dropping it back.Hoping to sort out some new valve springs, go back and add some timing to that load level. This has been a big education for both of us so we're happy with baby steps and learn along the way.I'm on the HPT forums as well, they've been very helpful throughout out the journey.Thanks for your feedback Edited 26/02/15 03:14 AM by timwds 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So basically a home tune job using HPT, learning along the way. I am the lucky guinea pig there is no professional tuner involved..Big thanks to Tim for his hard work too!What do you think about the BOV? I've heard of guys running lots more power than me on a stock bov and that it should be fairly quiet? Edited 26/02/15 03:20 AM by IT15ON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get some springs in it stat!I am very keen for the springs, they are pretty cheap too - but the tool to fit them while in car is the expensive bit!
