She runs up to 30 degrees of ignition advance!

My temp was 92-94 on the open road and up to 102 sitting in a car park for 10 mins idling after a trip.

Litres per 100k is interesting to watch, as it TPS, volts, air intake temp etc...its all good geeky stuff.

PS. I cleared fault codes that were stored from when I changed the O2 sensors.

PPS. For those looking for compat' mine is an 01 build 02 complianced last of the rectangle headlight D2 V8 man

Nice thought, But I can assure you the engine doesnt make 160kw stock

No torque sensor on the engine either... You'll find the system is using a "calculation" and trying to get close...

hey

as i own a d2 V8 the nanocom doesnt work so now have to find one that does. i want something that can scan give me a read out on my laptop and be able to clear it or fix it
