Matto,
The car is looking great.
Mine smokes like a pig too, so in a way, I'm glad it's not just mine.

Ta.

Good video matey, also reminds me how much I like your wheels!

What you running air filter wise on your car? It's getting upto service time for mine and I'm unsure on if I should go with a K&N panel filter over the standard VAG filter as I can clean it as frequently as I want then!

[Matto]

Cheers mate. Yeah they do look good when they're clean. I have an ITG panel filter fitted. Just gave it a blow out with an air gun at last service.

[Jonny_FRS]

Standard filters are £18 plus VAT so it really does make sense to buy a reusable one! I'll have to get on the hunt for one today!

[Matto]

So today I attended a local charity rolling road event. Here is the print out:



I little bit lower than when it was last done but the rolling road is said to be a truthful one so I'm not too fussed. I also believe there is some room for improvement after speak with a couple of people.

Watch this space.

good results Matt..would worry on the figures of the rolling road- long as it drives ok that's the main thing

There is that yes BUT with the amount of smoke it chucks out it should be running more. Mapped correctly a smokeless 200bhp is achievable. Mine is over fuelling a fair bit so I believe there are some adjustments needed which will reduce smoke but also give better power and torque.

As you can see between 3500 and 3750 rpm the power drops off for some reason then rises again. Something else that can be smoothed out.

good run matey,  that's with a temp of 20oC odd  of warm air blowing, get it on a cooler day to you see the difference 

car's coming on well, looking good to...


hope you have been out getting some good shots for this years calendar 

[Matto]

I couldn't really say on its own as it was fitted the same time as the springs and RARB. Supposed to reduce wheelspin/wheelhop. No such luck with 1 million torques
