Hi Gary

Cheers for that, i have been lurking in the back round for a couple months looking at the builds,

Was thinking of sticking turbo on mine until i see yours, how do you think the emissions will be IVA time?

using me tablet or phone to get on line as laptop has died but when get that sorted i will start posting

Gary :)

haha that's a good question :)
as its a 2003 1.8 it has to meet bet or cat1 tests, I have a wideband o2 to help keep an eye on the fuelling, and I'm using the std ecu at the moment according to the gauge its pretty much where it should be with regard to air/fuel,
I used the original maf and moved the air temp sensor to after the intercooler so the ecu "should" be reading and therefore fueling fairly accurately....... so fingers crossed, although once iva is booked (hopefully shortly) I will see if the local garage will do an emissions run for me.
I think it is either skov or stots build he has gone an mx5 1.6 with turbo, to give you a perspective on the other side of forced induction
Look forward to seeing your build and I have family in Basingstoke so not to far away from you, so be wary of prying eyes when I visit them come summertime :)
