I have also fitted a 4 bar map sensor and just had the tubby refurbed by Turbo Dynamix(big thanks to them-excellent service and highly recommended!)-this will hopefully sort out the boost creep issue i've had

So it'll be quicker than my grannies Fiesta, but only JUST!

Whats the Anti lag like? And the launch control is that the foot off pedal and the car accelerates like a bull on heat? I'm curious as I'm looking into similar upgrades to you for my Impreza, once I have the handling spot on and way bigger brakes!

To be honest mate i think the a/l&l/c are just a gimmick-i never had them enabled on my simtek in my old classic,its just that they were already enabled when i brought the car-i dont do 1/4 mile drags in the car so have no need 2 use the l/c and anyways i have not interest in destroying clutches and i wouldn't use the a/l on track as it doesn't do the tubby any good

Just realised this is my mates old car! Mark Burr.....thought i recognised it then saw the dyno sheet with his name on it....remember when he got it, spent a fortune on it.

Yes it is Mark's old car mate-u've been in it and u've only just realised! but as u say had a few dollars spent on it just a shame the last owner didnt treat it with the respect it deserved!

Great car m8, spec is not a penny spared ! Plenty more done that you didn't list. Once the tubby is back i think we will see a very happy Beez

Tubby refitted today-thanks again wayne! ,certainly got the boost creep sorted now and also not a hint of smoke now the seals have been replaced-just needs a tweak of the map now and all will be good!
