nice john......good mods you have there, im well interested in the actuator and gasket mods...but i guess they work their magic on stage 2 and above leons....

also, you need to update your avator now that you have black mirror caps....

<---- Little bit better Bret ?

Yea the power gasket helps loads now that the inlet manifold is cold and helps the cold intercooled air in the cylinders.

Actuator is a must i think car pulls so well with this set up

Well its been on the rollers again today and did better power with the torque the BHP didn't go up any more on peak power. but still pulls like a train.

If you look at the first Run in Blue ive got NGK plugs and did 270 bhp at the clutch

2 mins later after changing my spark plugs for http://www.pulstar.com/

i ran my car again, second run in red did 6 bhp better and the final run in green made 7 bhp better. so with the new gasket and cold air feed, the torque made 20 lb ft better than last time.

and showed that them spark plugs weren't just a placebo and did make power

You can see on the graphs from the point where the torque and the bhp cross each other the plugs make a noticeable difference.
