you need a health check up mate, not more mods
was it the previous owner who did the conversion? was the rev 3 ecu put in along with all the other gubbins/afm ditched etc?

hmmm :-k
well now we know a little more detail, it does seem a little down for the mods/boost, would have expected about 240/250 flywheel.
As you travel between portsmoth and scarborough i imagine you travel up the M1? why not pop in to peter giddens on your way past jct 37 and let him have a look?

EDIT: what fuel where you using btw? and did they have a fan on the intercooler?
