So better update this....
Can't recommend JP's mapping enough tbh!! Its a stage 1 + and tbh is a bit smokier than I'd like...but by far the quickest and most driveable HDi I've owned!
Bad points since the swap -
Started hunting like mad at scrapyard with EML as well....got home, got PP on it and turned out to be a +ve short on the FPR....one of the wires was laying on the starter!! Oops, rerouted it and hasn't happened since.
Slight leak from heater matrix pipes at bulkhead...and I mean slight, it took 250 miles before the header level dropped below the sensor lol. As a quick fix I put some insulation tape round it but it completely cured it lol!! Not sure if they're not seated right, or if I damaged the plastic during removal, but I have a spare set anyway
The bonnet rust has got worse from jetwashing.
Apart from those things, its been good.
It will be for sale soon, some point next month and I'd like it to go to someone on here tbh. Will be looking for a grand with T&T which I think is fair considering the work done and the 'extras'. Powerflow wont be coming with it I'm afraid, std chrome tip will be going back on. Spare moonstone wing and matrix pipes will come with the car. I will of course make a proper ad nearer the time, but if you're interested feel free to drop me a PM.
