Driven for 9 hours to get to the ring and on first lap it starts coughing at high revs when on boost. Any ideas for fixing?
I might be hoping a bit but I'll try it again when its cooled over night.

Jamie, I know you've just has it serviced, did they change the plugs? If so did they set em right.
Did you give it any Welly on the way there and was it ok.
If you want anything brought over let me know and I'll pack it in the bag for Saturday.

I'm not sure if they put new plugs in but it was running sweetly back home. Thanks for the offer matty, going to need some tools to check the gaps.
I've got a feeling my fuel pump is the problem, I had a similar problem on another car frownanyone got an m400 pump kicking around?

Good work guyssmile
Mine is standard m400 so I'm not sure of the differences in fittings to the 044.
