Default my car is being tweaked today !!?

My car is going to Neil @ slowboy today at 9 o clock, having td05 18h (Harveys) and perrin 3 port.

I feel like a child again....a tired child as I didnt sleep

Is this normal I ask myself ?
Will post up results later.

Picked her up, havnt got true rr figures as she was mapped properly......eg on the road which in my opinion is the correct way ( awaiting hornests nest ) !!! she drives fantastic bit more lag but a lovely smack as she starts to wind up, one thing I will say is dont buy a perrin 3 port as it sounds like there is someone under the bonnet with a machine gun .......very noisy. Big hats off to Neil,

Stew.

My prodrive 3 port is noisy as well I also thought something was amiss with the engine. Seems to make more noise at low throttle openings unless other noises on wot overmasks it. Bit annoying though really, trying to think of a way to mount it to reduce the noise
