Bit of both mate.
Starting from almost scratch again as the original mapping was last min.com the night before central Day.
few weeks ago it was reving to 8000rpm but was breathng slightly heavy at high rpm. So a few amendments and ready to
continue today.
I have not been updated yet.

Re: M4D RST - Photo update
Cheers Dalsy, gutted didnt see you.. would have been good to catch up.
Are you at FF this year?
Thanks for the comments, nice to hear what people see.
As a summary -
Needs some wider tyres on the front as grip was lacking, yet it still acclerates hard at the same time.
I have 205/50/15 AO48R's on the rear and thats working well along with rear brakes. Didnt lock up nor did the back feel light.
Fronts though 195/50/15 888's are to be upgraded to same as rear.
( I have these! God knows why i didnt get them fitted )
Front pads though let me down though as the brakes werent as sharp or giving me any feedback so I was braking far earlier than hoped.
BUT enough feedback to sort it all.
Toying with ds3000 for fronts or carbotech xp8/10...

Re: M4D RST - Photo update
dont think Im planning on taking the Fiesta to Ford Fair mate, as Im doing the event at Tockwith with the RSOC on the 1st of August
But I think theres a few of us coming down in a mini bus to see the day, just like we did for Combe , 800 miles round trip, but well worth it
