Any video of performance testing?

Slap a pbox on the car. Or film the speedo with your iPhone. You only need one hand to drive an auto after all...

feedback on plasma coils - cold starts are definitely improved (less noise, smooth idle), engine reacts faster when down shifting on high revs and makes slightly different noise during shifts, nothing noticeable on low end, the car seems a bit sharper after 4-5k revs ...

Any performance data on this car yet ? Did I miss it? Sure looks mean. I had one following me yesterday and the angry face is excellent.

no time slips as yet, if that's what you after, wanted to get the gearbox sorted first,
will do the run in street setup first, very soon
