I had a broken maf sensor. Now its fixed. Will also change fuel temperature sensor and water thermostat just to be sure.

New ECU program revision 1 is installed:


Old turbo could not handle the back pressure after 4000 rpm. Tomorrow will go to pick up 3 new Borg Warner BV35 turbochargers, yes 3. Those should be good to go up to 120 Hp!. I have to thank Turbotekniikka Oy for those new turbos. They gave me also some valuable information on engine tuning and setup which I should try.

Water injection system is installed and intercooler is put back in place.

Today installed some front wheel fairings:

I have reserved a time for some standing mile acceleration on 7.7.2012. Target is to beat best lupo so far which means 181 km/h end speed.
