Got a bit carried away......
......couldn't resist seeing if it would start after spending the last few days wiring up the ECU. I had a couple of questions regarding the crank and cam sensors, but once these were sorted I got a green light on the ECU so decided to go for it. Oil, fuel and water were poured in and stayed in
The first start is without the exhaust, second is with exhaust and the third is to show the popping and banging going on in the ITB's. Still some work to do on the mapping, but to be honest I never really expected it t start

Back to work on finishing the mechanicals and the wiring now, as the bodywork is due anytime soon!

Quite chuffed really. The popping and banging seems to start a few seconds after it's started and according to the manual the ECU dumps more fuel in whilst cranking and for a few seconds after, so I think it just needs tweaking up a bit. But that can all wait until it's finished and on the rolling road.

Its always good when the engine starts, proves you got a lot of things right
Yours runs way better than mine on its first start up, but then again I had a generic map for some V6 that i dont remember.
A few hours on the rolling road should see it sorted.....

Hi Dave
Nice one, I was amused by you placing the extinguisher at one end of the garage and you being at the other when starting.........

LOL, I handed it to my wife, there is door at the back of the garage which I made sure was unlocked. I must be getting old, I'd never have taken those precautions when I was younger
