Is it A-Series only? I think it should be...
So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...

Thanks for the update jimster :) just a pity about the mishaps, we did wonder what had happened to you on looking at the results as they came through. Better look next time and hopefully a bigger field as well.

Strange how you can't hear the miss fire on the video until I stop the car and try and start it again.

I turned the camera on, but it was flat when I went to turn it off, not sure if it went flat on lap one, or after the race, so hopefully should have some / most or all of it

Jimbo, it certainly looks to me that while you might be fuelling ar about 12:1 when you are at WOT, other times when you are still making boost, the engine is going lean very guickly when you appear to drop to anything less than WOT... Even the 12:1 is a little on the lean side - I'd have targetted 11.5:1 personally - to give some leeway.

I was thinking the same thing as TD but it didn't know if it was just the software lagging on the screen.

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.
