Idling issues!?!
The thing is the idle stopping is very erratic, it's happened 3 times this week, but is smooth when it idles at 1000-1100rpm, also I have no way of taking a video image :( only have the iPhone 3G lol

Friends with a stick? I like a bit more finesse than that tbh, but good to know about the 8v.
Which engine is more tuneable though, 8v or 16v?

Well this would just be the start, I've got a cam on order and intend to have the car mapped as well, and why bother you ask?
Why does anyone bother to tune a car?
