OK, so we're getting to the point where it's looking to be all done. With the exception of WMI which, at the moment, I simply can't afford....lol.
Anyway, a few words on this TIP that's been fitted, and my experience thereof.
Fitment. It fits well, and to be fair, has moved the air filter further away from the engine than it was before which can only be a good thing... :thumbsup:
Performance. The outputs speak for themselves, and to be fair, it's even better out on the road.

The TIP has actually allowed more boost to be run for less timing pull. Under load, the timing is and always has been fine, but under normal driving conditions, such as motorway, the CFs were creeping up into the 6s so I knocked the timing back .75 degrees to drop that down.
Economy under normal day to day driving has gone up due to the slower spool time of the turbo. It's not permanently trying to boost it's little **** off. Again, this is deffo a good thing.
IATs are down on average. Under road use, I would normally see around 10 degrees above ambient temp. That has dropped to about 5-6 degrees on average.
As can be seen from the log files above, I am getting consistently 264/265 g/s air flow out on the road, I can't believe the difference in the driveability since TIP fitting. (mostly the torque).
All in all, a great bit of kit IMO, so thanks for letting me be a guinea pig Bill....
:thumbsup:
I'm a bit sad to see this project draw to a close
