Well just a note on progress.
ran it a few times and noticed that it is a different engine when cold, sounds harsh and a bit Smokey, when hot it sounds better than I have ever heard it.
Plugged in the Nanocom and noticed that MAF saw a max of 380 Kg I unplugged it and it ran much smoother, so I ordered a new one from Island, at the same time i read of someone who replaced the manifold pressure/temp sensor and found the engine was not so jumpy on the throttle, so in for a penny (actually £25)
Put on the new MAF and manifold sensor and I'm not sure it certainly smoked much worse when cold, I’m puzzled. New one reads about 430 max so I upped the boost a bit now hits about 200kpa, anyone have any known good MAF readings to compare?
today gave it a 150 ml run down the A1 and it seemed to appreciate it, done about 350 miles since the re build and MOT is due next week.
Watch this space.
