Rev counter is out also isnt it? Speed-Gear-Revs don't match what mine used to.

I don't think it is, but I still need to check how close the speedo is, sounds like it's reving past 7k to me.

If the Coolant Temp is high and the Rev counter is over reading id be thinking that the instrument cluster is faulty.

Its definately not right. Perhaps your speedo is out too?

Going by the speed it just went past 130, and the rev counter was on 6300rpm. The book speed for a GTE 16V is 134mph, and max revs being 6800rpm.

Might have a potter about with my Performance box, and get some proper GPS speeds.

Cool what TT ?

Mine was built by me, on my drive with mostly second hand bits

It's got less than 190 hp to.

I've upset a S2000 in a traffic light GP with it, and out dragged a lot of turbo cars on track.

0-70 it pulls really well but judging by your vid it takes 14/15 seconds to hit 100mph which is only a bit quicker than a standard ep3 (that's going by speedo too which is prob inaccurate...)

Going by what the fuel gauge says from start to finish - it looks a very thirsty car
