Just watched the video on the fb page. Sounds quality!!

This may be a stupid question but why the random revving after it hit's the limiter?

you blip the throttle with clutch in, on coastdown, so you dont get low oil pressure straight after you have done a WOT run, or while the engine is at 7k revs - you are trying to keep oil pressure at 5bar+ while the engine is still turning at those revs. If you just let it drop to idle oIl pressure would be less than 2 bar, even dropping lower if revs drop.

It looks stunning, and a great choice of work - I'm very jealous!

Wow, that's a good increase!
Similar to what I'm having done (power wise anyway) except I'm not getting manifold or carbon clean. I can't wait to just see what mine is running stock let alone getting back afterwards and driving it home.

Nearly 2 and a half years.

All I've done is cosmetic mods so far; anthracite wheels, smoked led rear lights, smoke side repeaters, black grille, sprayed ally bumper strip black, led interior and exterior lights etc.
Also started replacing the stereo in there over the summer and have it sounding quite good now, although I still have a lot of new equipment to go in still. Oh and a BMC panel filter.
Tomorrow I have a Revolution carbon intake kit arriving, then on Thursday it's off to MRC for the work I mentioned previously.
