Had my car in for a map at the weekend, made 405bhp...I'm not at the desired figure yet, any way, I went for a damn good thrash last night, and after a high speed run 150mph plus (private road of course....) it has starter to idle quite high, and then it will change it's mind and idle so low it feels like it's going to cut out! Any ways Iv tried the old turning it on and off again trick and that hasn't work, so what will be the best things to look at first myself before having to take it to a garage etc? Any ideas guys? Thanks

I'm trying to get hold of one yes, but don't really want to buy new so I can keep the cost down! Also need 3 inch elbow and may well go for a tubular manifold at some point! Had to have a new intake made as the old one wasn't big enough and had 90 degree bends in and different diameters etc! It's never as straight forward as you think with these things is it! But I'm learning Smile

A launch is lots of revs and two ways side step the clutch or drag it neither are advisable

So side stepping is a term for dropping the clutch? Dragging is the more sympathetic choice for your transmission I believe?
