Update at long last.
Been a long time comming but finnaly got to hear the sound of the car running in the last few days,its been at Matrin Treacys(Westward Eng) getting the Gotech Pro ECU Mapped.
We got the figure's back the other day from the mapping and well im delighted.The Honda F20c engines are 240bhp stanard afaik,so we were unsure of wat to expect considering Ronan at Roco-Performance had to make up the manifold having been let down by Gunt Tuning,ronan done a great job in mega quick time car wouldnt be done without him,Also the car was running on stanadrd 95octanne fuel so no power gains were to be had there,engine was completey stock.
We got 242BHP and 219 Nuten metres of torque(dunno how that is spelt sorry)
DELIGHTED with it.

We are getting the car back to the garage tonight and have a full list of work to get done tonight in time for competition tomorrow at Prodrift Round 3 Nutts Corner.The event will be a shakedown for the car,i have still yet to drive it and e will be just seeing were the car is at in terms of setup etc.But i cant wait for it.Then next week we have graphics planned and new wheels ariving(ill be borrowing buddyclubs for this weekend)
So the minute i get out of work its all go for a long night getting the car ready for 8am in Belfast.
Wish us luck.
Hopefully ill be on over the weekend with some pics of the car and it in action(please god) and ill also try get the dyno sheet uploaded.
