New mods and set up looks great fixed up all the little details I wanted to do since the major re-engineering of the initial set up she should be a rocket! I'll post up all the performance statistics sooner rather than later I hope........ I can't wait. The Ferrari F40 is going down !!!!

In the 1000km of testing completed to date the exhaust gas temperatures have not exceeded 880deg C. Completed a proper longer haul load test to top of 4th gear (8000rpm) to get the highest reading as well. Normally peak in 3rd is around 840deg C in a near static load condition. Front and Rear rotor read the same to 0.5 deg C.

On cruising on stoich fuel mixture setting or leaner the EGT is over 100deg C cooler than before (on old turbocharger specifications). Fuel economy is flat out amazing ! including regular performance tests I average around 10lt per 100km.
