I run 49/50, i got 8 degress of timing from the WMI before we hit MBT, i didn't see any increase in BHP until i got the car tuned for the WMI.It will greatly help with your EGT's and whom ever is doing your Hybrid tune will/should take this into account.
Not sure if i need all this timing when i get the new setup going(next week!!)

Yeah, should be finished tuesday and getting the first tuning session done wednesday, unfortunately i need to leave the country thursday so i am doubtful that we will get her fully tuned in 1day.Still i am going to the USA so i might pick up a clutch or some sort of fancy mod for the car, maybe even a WOT box.
P.S i got mine tuned running a 49/50 mix, thats why i have stuck with it.

Yeah, i skimmed about 1mm off it and then clocked the turbo about 2mm.There is a good gap there now.
The new injectors are ok, the ECU is having a micky fit trying to figure out whats going on, my fuel trims are -24.1%
Still its doing it job well trying to lean the mix out.I'll get pics up later for you.
What gaskets did you get, i was given the OEM ones from 034, i am cautious as i can see them restricting flow, do you have a link for your.
i just got standard one that seat sell. part no is 06a 253 039 is this to small for the high flow mani?
I have the same gasket, The guy installing mine said it will be fine, remember the manifold is ported so it will be bigger but the turbo is not so its swings and roundabouts i guess.
Paul as promised, you can see on the mani where i need to skim a tad bit off(1mm'ish), i wonder does it need to be treated now or will the heat keep the rusk away?!
Did you get your CR turbo yet?
Also i spotted this Clutch kit today, i think i might pick it up next week in the US, it work out at €287, WOW, and its a southbend clutch BTW.
