Oh and I use a vacuum pump for the brakes as when on boost you don't have vacuum for the servo and got caught out with no servo assistance on a local road with lots of roundabouts a few years ago going from boost stright to brakes several times and this pump has eliminated this issue
How much Torque is your car making now?

I am thinking of getting a Sachs performance clutch maybe.
