Now the car is actually running properly again, theres a few other things i want to sort out.
Firstly, when i back off the acclerator i get a funny noise, kinda like a high pitch rattle, its in tune with the exhaust as it makes the noise at the same time as the exhaust is popping and farting, goes away when i dip the clutch, but i dont think its the clutch.

Secondly, and importantly, its lagging like a b*tch, running 1.1bar on an esl board, but not hitting 1.1 until nearly 5.5k. The boost rises to 0.6 quick enough, but then it really holds back until 5k ish and it rises properly from there.
I will try and do a video of it today so you can see what its doing.

Its started to occasionally missfire now too, mostly when just changing gear at low revs, but occasionally does it when i am accelerating hard.

I know the drivers side exhaust header is leaking slightly, i can hear a tap, i have tried tightening it, but am scared of overdoing it and snapping the stud, it wouldnt be the first time!!!!

Any ideas would be great! the shopping list so far is a pair of rocker gaskets, exhaust gaskets for header to block, header to up pipe and header to header (standard 2 peice header)


Thanks Mike
