Whats the latest then Steve  :popcornsoda: :popcornsoda:

All up and running, can't get mine to run normal temps on the APR dyno so the ECU is pulling back the power. The temps are hitting near 60c on the dyno vs. the normal 34c on the road.

Also now have switchable maps on the cruise control which is awesome, so I have 3 programs.

1= ECO
2 = Street / Race Course Map
3 = Drag / Full Power

Here's one of the graphs from the 2 program: -



Just going by the numbers it's not massive gains for sure, but out of the road it feels and sounds very different with the head work completed.

Joel is over from the States again so a bit more tweaking will be done this week so final results will follow shortly.

Basically the only differences between mine and Dan's now is the Water Meth, APR vs. THS IC and BWA vs AXX bottom end.

Out of interest what weight is your Golf in trackday trim?

Last time it was weighed before the Air Con was removed it was 1290 with a full tank of fuel.

Hi Steve that's a nice power curve but the WHP is a bit low, is that a software issue on the dyno?

Seems quite poignant.
