Engine sounded really good. As you said everything went to plan bar the earth issue. Now it's a waiting game to see what figures engine is giving.

That it is, although I did find the limits of its Tardis like interior during that trip (2 kids and a load of luggage).

Tomorrow it is getting an MOT so I will be able to try it out on the open road

I really hope you took that backbox from the last pic! That'd sound epic!

Doctor Who fan?

I also enjoyed the interior capacity of my Civic IX , with the "magic seats"

Happy to see your engine living again

What engine flush product did you use?
Think mine could use one

I think it was Power Maxed engine flush, I'll check later this afternoon.

I forgot to say that I am still using Shell VPower with this engine as it is an 11:1 compression engine and I am not using a knock sensor. I am guessing that at race temps I might get knock at this compression ratio with lower RON fuel, so to avoid that situation I'm using the highest octane fuel I can get my hands on.
