The only wiring issue was me being a ***,
When i removed the launch control from the loom i forgot to cover the bare wire up, so one of the coil negatives was touching metal,
Anyway after a "what a ***" moment i taped it up and it run perfectly lol
Thanks guys 
Nick

Ill be honest buddy, im not sure, but it feels like it takes longer to get through the revs than the zr did, probably due to all the extra weight

did you use the vvc exhaust manifold or the ZS one?
are they both the same or is the ZS one a 4-1 rather than 4-2-1?

Mg zs 160 vvc
Yeah i used the vvc manifold and downpipe, the centre section had to be modified to fit it, but the 120 manifold will fit, just not as free flowing as the 160 one
