    LDK turbo powered Caterham 7

    Just thought I would provide an update. It turns out Sean from Church Automotive near Long Beach is familiar with these ECM's and was able to get me tuned on his dyno. I achieved my target of 300hp with 320ft*lbs. I haven't had much time to drive it since, but it's certainly fast. My 245's may...
