She goes well. Torque is available down low where it wasn't before. Once boost hits it's a freight train haha.

Actually better than 98...e85 helps a he'll of a lot. Feels slower due to a more linear power band as opposed to 98 and less boost. But goes very well. Antilag is pretty good fun to haha

Small "update"

Was sitting at the lights last week Monday, just idling normally.

All of a sudden car just dies. Dead in the water. Try turn it back over - nothing. Put it in first and try jump it - nothing.

Hazards on and check the fuel pump wiring. No priming noise at all - figure pump is dead.

Push car clear and wait for tow-truck. 10 24/7 tow companies called, 2 pick up - both don't have the tow truck with them.

Fucking hopeless.

Get the car snatch strapped home - that was interesting with no brakes or power steering, was only 10km luckily.

Towed to ASG the next morning.

Call back that arvo - 3 month old DW300 is dead.

450L/hr Walbro fitted - $440 + $100 tow.

DW300 sent back today and trying to resolve the issue with a refund not replacement.

Will update when I hear back. Emailed Deutschworks already and awaiting a response as the pump was brand new and 3 months old.

Sigh...
