ooh have they changed? please do tell bro!



You probably twisted your crank that 0.5° from thrashing it so much

My TDC mark was actually spot on, i'd verified it (& #2 & #3 also) with the dial indicator before fitting the head. i'm a bit OCD like that
In fact had a degree wheel on standby but tossed it as i didn't use it after (you only need to know Cyl#1 TDC)

Hmm I researched and wrote out a detailed how-to in planning this thing the first time, took lots of pics, but didn't note the ££££ (too frightening lol)

The parts is list there if anyone wants accurate numbers but I reckon about £6000 doing the work yourself.

Comparable package in terms of outright bhp from TTS (stage 1), would be about the same if not more i think, all spends necessary included
 
Awesome work sir! I hope to use some of this info soon!

Anyone have a 240 tunecu file? Im not going down the tuneboy route.

I have one you can use but you’ll need PCV if your keeping stock injectors
