I shall get one at some point :) Also it doesn't overboost any more either so may be able to modify the turbo map for less lag Then look at getting the car onto a dyno :)

Yeah we shall see when it's sorted, it was spiking off the gauge at first so it's turned down until we finish mapping the boost at the moment. And I'm on the .net stand
