He saw us as we were heading back to the cars after having a drink (not beer!) and said you couldn't make it. I think with the right weather it would be a decent get together. Will post pics tonight.

Think the car will have to go
It looks like the insurance will offer an 85% payout on the house and I had a letter yesterday to tell me a 15 year savings plan matures in June which means I can keep the car :clap::clap::clap: To say I'm relieved is an understatement especially since I cracked the 500bhp mark, so just need to convince the wife to let me spend some of the money on the car to iron out a few problems. So hopefully an electric water pump, big alloy rad and new fan to sort cooling out and some suspension work. :thumbup:

The rear suspension on the car has started to squeak going over bumps, car is lowered 50mm with adjustable camber arms, is it time for new shocks?

Amen!

Many thanks John Dixon
It Bailey Performance, mine was in after Jimmers. Talking to them 530 isn't the max as he thinks mine could make 550 next time and didn't say it was a problem.

single tubo dyno results part 1 DYNO GRAPH ADDED
It's quite as bad as you think, boost starts around 3300 but keeps building quickly after that and if I remember rightly after 5k your looking at 400bhp. TBH it does mean I can cruise around without using the turbo if I want and then drop a gear and nail it when I want the power, the delivery is nice. Maybe ounce the wastegate is sorted and the ebc fitted it will change a little. I did it to be different and a enjoyed the challenge of getting it to work and the other advantage, the turbo was a T78 from Ebay in the US which was very cheap and the other, no engine out for a turbo change or upgrade!!:tt2:
