Yeah that's what I thought which is why a shat myself and expected all £53 to come pouring back out again. Hasn't leaked since but the whole car under and inside stinks like petrol, pretty sure I got high on the way home . Will have a look at it, clean it all and then try filling again and see what happens.
Because it's a conversion and not the stock ECU for engine each one is made separately so I have to buy each one rather than having 5 made from the stock map.

I'm only able to have the one map so we've done a nice well rounded and safe one for road/track/top speed etc....
This is the result
As you can see peak numbers are good but nothing spectacular as it's more about what's under the graph and helping the engine handle my rather aggressive driving :signLOL:
Best peak numbers were 372bhp and 395.4lb/, Niki said with meth it's 380+ and 400+ all day.
This is mine compared to a stage2+ without anti surge.
You can see how mine (below) just comes in and holds torque and power whereas the normal K04 has to be mapped around the surge and can't hold it as well through some parts of the rev range.
Car was amazing on the way home. Slip road destroyer.
Filled up with V-power and this happened
Not sure if it's a problem with the car or I overfilled as I was tired but have filled up many many times and at that exact pump a couple of times without an issue before. Will be keeping an eye out and putting it on the ramp to double check.
It's not like they need another rave review but huge thanks to Niki and the lads for sorting a truly epic map and to Alex at AKS for putting it all together for me. Can't wait to get this baby on track.

That looks smooth as hell. Impressive.
Hope that was just a filling error though and not a split tank!!

You must be chuffed with her now.
Can you do a little video of the exhaust please.
I wanted to book with EMP this next week but want to get an idea how loud it is

Yeah it flies, just a shame it's been spoiled by the fuel issue as I'm a massive over thinker and been worrying about issues it could be all day. Has a thorough check and drive but all seems good. I will fill it up again when it's late so if it does happen it's not a huge inconvenience.
Will try to get a video this weekend :happy2:
