Today was the day! Picked her up at 9am this morning and chose some back roads for the route home so I avoid motorways while running the engine in
As above, currently limited to 5500rpm on a very moderate base map until we've put a few hundred miles on the engine to have the oils changed at the full map put on. At the moment, we're running around 230bhp at the wheels with 1.2bar of boost at 5500rpm, so a LOT more to come out of the engine once it's mapped
The biggest difference right now? The NOISE! It's just so awesome
Cruising around town you get a loud whistle from the charger around 2,000rpm, then when you boot it the whole car just fucks off, screaming it's way down the road!
Took a quick video when I got her home just to get the noise of the charger. Engine sounds like it's knocking but it's just the crap microphone on my camera phone. Engine runs smooth and sweet

I'll be doing a couple of hundred miles all on back roads tomorrow
The new clutch with the Cusco shift springs takes some getting used to, but the shift is short and precise now. Coupled with the new Arc gear knob, it's a really good setup for the gearbox
And of course I had to treat her to a clean after nearly 5 weeks since her last bath
