Hehe
Took the corsa for a wee warm up round my work carpark…. first time its moved since the track day about 1month ago.
Took its usual few turns off the key to fire once I remembered to start the fuel pump (lights on and fog’s on)…. Stalled it a few times (heavy clutch)…. Did a few laps, then had to stop quite quickly for an old biddy reversing out a space… forgot I was in 2nd and tried to move off… car bogged down and let off a huge back fire… scaring the folk walking about hehe.
Silly car

Where's it getting mapped.... WP?

yup... WP...
asked for a few other tweaks to the map too... Lean it off on idle, and maybe raise the idle to 1000rpm to try and get it by emmisions 
Got the fuel pump back working off the ignition yesterday, and tidied up the wiring in the front... also removed some more weight
