Well i've went down the 2 valve inflation method in meantime....(know wammers will like ma post lol)

Got it sitting at around 20" all round from middle of wheel to arch at approx 65psi all round and 44psi in each tyre

*Hopefully* the db9 gender changer will arrive tomorrow (bought wrong fitment hence the F2F gender changer & USB adapter) so i can unlock the eas, already made the obd cable up & balls it up altogether lol (joking)

wammers...any tips on what to do with the eas unlock??....better to deflate it all back down to bumpstops or anything you suggest please would be appreciated?
Or anyone else got experience of best thing to do?

Attached piccy of how it looked prior to day i jump started it

Tyre pressures are way to high. 20" from centre of wheel to arch lip is to high should be 475 mm at standard ride height. With tyre pressures like that and 20" set on height you will rattle your fillings out, hope you know a cheap dentist. Read my EAS "How to" for how to check things, find out if any faults recorded on EASunlock and post them on here.

Shouldn't your tyre pressures be 28 front, 38 rear?

Seriously?? 38 rear yeah i can do that but 28 at front??

Start off by reading the instructions for the EAS software, then get the green "Good Idle". Once you have that, read the faults and report back.
Your tyre pressure are possibly dangerous.

That's what the manual says, isn't it light on the steering?

You can use a little less in the arse end when not loaded to stop it bouncing around. But as Alan says manual says 28 front 38 rear.

If it's not connected to the bloody car how can you expect the ECU to give you an RX response?

Well no that am trying to look silly but..... there is a video on youtube of RSW showing that the EAS unlock will still run without it being connected to the car...hence why i posted up the screenshot of it running without being on the car & also a screenshot of faults without it being in the car lol

Also video below

Yes there is a video of the demo program but the unit itself won't run on it's own. The TX sends out signals the ECU sends responses back through the RX if there is no connection to car it can't send anything back. He is the bloke that designed it that is more than likely plugged into his bench tester.
