Wow. Thanks guys. It's not perfect, yet, but it's a lovely car.
It's mapped well enough to drive about. Rev limiter still at 4.5K. Playing it safe until it gets dynoed.
Crappy vid:

Dude- yours will be cleaner from the looks of things! You'll have an extra 100cc too
Mine's taken over a year to get to this stage there is still lots to do.
