196cm here  Smart roadster seats is what im considering trying next. if a set of Mk2 Mr2 seats dont do the trick.
just make sure you connect the heating element wires up not the side airbag wires.
can pick up a nice pair of half leathers for about £200 |

ok i've just laid out the whole controller, Tiny can you explain again? On the manual it says one goes in to the intercooler or something, im quite unsure of it all!
and where does the pipe with no hose on it connect to! |

Oh yeah my bad! silver capps look similar,
You Wil and Brian all have silver ones
if you can do some trails to see how much of a difference the extra boost pressure makes! |

Well my gauge tells me that currently it's at 9.8psi
And i plan on getting it up to 14? I don't even know what difference it will make lol
Also, im trying to squeeze in to a dyno day in under 2 weeks, and i really want to know where it's currently at, so that should be interesting! |

I have a standard ECU, but ive been past 140, so i wonder if it has a board inside it, because the limiter wire is not cut. So i should still have a boost limit as standard.
I tried to pull it out to check, but i couldnt get it off the bottom hook... hmmm maybe i'll give that another crack today |

Chino is off to car heaven, i picked up the replacement yesterday afternoon.
It's very different, but still very similar.
I hope I enjoy the new one as much as I did my Cappuccino, it will probably be the only car I'll ever miss!
I'll still be around on the forums, because im still following everyone's builds! |

The engine went with the car. I always estimated a significantly different power curve to a standard capp, it was seriously impressive.
A kid called me this morning interested, i've given him all the details, he'll be trying to buy it from the auction house.
Hope it finds another life again! |
