Bumping an old thread. Great work mate! Any update on those figures?

Curious as to how you got on with the QED piston and rod kit long-term. I'm building a forged 1.8 Turbo at the moment and considering options.

Cheers

Love this car Daz, do you ever do track days or is it just a show queen now?

had it mapped at emerald when I went for the ecu upgrading and they blew the turbo so didn't get a map relly
the young lad who works there mapped it and didn't have air blowing onto the oil cooler
so matt offered to let me have the map he runs on his zs
ill try and get some curves off matt

just lengthen the gearstick below the the pivot point and it will shorten the throw of the gear stick if you made it twice as long then the throw would decrease by 50%
