Discussion
I’ve had my Cerbera for a couple of months now, apart from a few niggles it has been running perfectly (touch wood).
There have been a lot of postings over the years concerning improvements to the car, upgrading the suspension, exhaust, setting throttle pots, engine mapping, replacing the ECU, improving air induction, upgraded radiator etc.
If you have made improvements to your car (I’m not counting light conversions (debatable), wheels, exhausts) what improvements did you make? What was your priority?
As I’ve said the car is running well but I would be interested to take it on to a rolling road and see if there are any flat spots in the torque curve (it is not that smooth below 3000rpm which I know is common). I understand this can be a result of poor fuelling set-up. Can anyone recommend a rolling road in the south-west where this can be done?

Power station, Cheltenham? There will be dips all over the torque curve, but nothing much that you can really do about it - altering the fuelling would require remapping the ECU. All you will find out is how yours compares to the others - which will just potentially upset you 
Best mods are suspensions, then decent brakes (my huge Brembo 8-pots are still for sale, plug plug), then maybe engine.

Thanks DannyIt. I take it re-mapping can not be done yet. Sounds like the same thing Julian64 (www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=44938&f=6&h=0) is trying to crack.
Like the look of your brakes but as I'm running on bog standard set-up, I'll need new alloys and tires too.
