Also began sorting some of the wiring out to properly set up the water/meth injection and nitrous control.
Still got the hot start issue, so I need to look at that.
Also got some quick bleed brake nipples so need to fit them and refresh the brake fluid.

Stuck to 70-80 for the whole journey and she didn't miss a beat, but down on power.
Then went to japshow this weekend and exactly the same, all spot on cruising but just doesn't have the power it should so will need a remap.
Met a new mapper my friend highly recommends this weekend, and he's agreed to map the car for me in a couple of weeks. Just need to find some cheap rear wheels as he reckons we'll hammer them on the rolling road.
Before the mapping though I had a leaking rear oil seal to change. She's been fine for the two long journeys but just an annoying dripping. I refuse to take the engine back out so decided to do it by removing the gearbox.
Now you should know by now I do all the work my self in my garage so had the car on axle stands, unbolted the gearbox, the basically bench pressed the gearbox off and on with me underneath it lay on my creeper. Not easy but job done in about 6 hours total by myself.
Oh and I revealed my new bumper at japshow, once again made myself from a tte bumper:
