too shy.... 
SMC - on a serious note you spoken to your mapper as to their opinion? Or even the engine builder who would carry out your build? They are probably the best people to see advice from as to what is best for you. I did this and it means everything ends up working nicely together - you get your hp numbers and times.

What ECU do you have/goingto upgrade to if not already done as that will play a crucial role at the end.
Always gd to have input from both your engine builder and mapper. Latter will be able to give you an indication as to what to expect.

yerr weve got our mates ra down to 804 kilos. so hoping the 2 door will go that little bit further...
keith at scooby projects has sold me the car and helping. graham sweet is available for engine build advice as well. he supplied v9 rear thrust block and advised on engine build of my mates ra.
the original reason for the question was because of what loom i could get away with in a P1. but sourced original P1 loom yesterday. thanks anyway guys avcs it is
