Jay - explain to me how that will help you in anyway? What boost is the car running? Where will the controller connect up to?

It will help put the power down on the road more effectively, as you can variate the boost in each gear. So perhaps low boost through first for launch etc. And flipping from high and low boost will be a good feature to have! It has a super accurate boost pressure display... Everything that i've said so far will justify my purchase and it has loads more features. And as i don't have a guage atm i have no idea what boost im running atm... ill ask AmD when i go there to fit my new hoses. Connecting wise... i have a wizz of a friend that will be doing it for me! it has it's own processor so i believe it doesnt connect to the ecu. I'll be honest, i'm not sure how it works! it's a clever piece of kit and ill post up a review and detail any changes in the way the car drives...

Nice to see you the other day dude even if it was just a passing by. The car was looking clean as always! In fact, I think that's the first mid-week day in ages that my car has left the garage so you were lucky :D

Sorry to hear about the damage, what did you dent...bumper, tailgate?

Yeah, i thought... NO WAY! Not only is it rare to see your car roaming the streets of Redhill and the surrounding areas, but it was also raining!

And yeah unfortunately i dented both the tailgate and the bumper, i've had a decent quote though from a man in caterham. Recommended by my pals. So it should come out better than it looked before. i don't feel to bad paying the dolla for this to be honest as the paint was awful on it before the bump :)

pictures soon
