Bit of an update:
Nothing new added but currently working on designing rear strut brace/ sourcing a rear arb. Just trying to get the university labs to make me a bracket without admitting it's not a uni project.
And also in regards to the lack of power it could be due to the discovery of having a 56mm throttle...which is from a t series turbo engine.
It seems that bigger is not better and changing the 52mm throttle to a 56mm causes high end power loss and apparently if you open the throttle fully you have less acceleration than when 3/4 open. on power graphs people claim it kills the power heavily after 6k rpm whereas the 52mm holds strong til limiter
The only benefit people seem to claim is more torque below 2k but then im never down that low so I won't miss it
