Tires are 215/45/17 on an 8" wide 17" rim. They are actually considerably wider than 215mm, it's around 225. Much wider than 215 paradas.

Completely black wheels I don't like as much, I'm perfectly happy with Anthracite :D

And swapping stronger rods in there is still a few months into the future by my planning so I don't want to mess that up by bending one ;) I want to get the car onto the Ring as soon as they feel like opening it.

Mark, here's the dyno sheet but the colours are awful. The run in red (017) was last september, the yellow one was today with lower boost and a little lean. Pink was the best and last run, I added some fuel and 1 psi of boost.

Between 5 and 6K rpm the curve isn't very pretty but that's only because of the complete lack of cooling on that particular dyno, hence I didn't feel like altering my map for that as it runs very strong there on the road.

Looks like you could take a little fuel out and make a bit more power, particularly between 4.5 and 5k..but a little after that too. Do you always run a wideband in the car? Wondering if the numbers are a little different on the road.

A lot different on the road. Lack of cooling makes the car pig rich on the dyno, much leaner on the street. I had already taken out fuel out of the map to get it to run sort of right on the dyno lol
