....

Had a great day and we all managed to do the same in spite of the weather - It didn't matter. My Quaife works quite well in the wet anyway.

Even I succumbed to the divine fragrances of AutoPerfection's offerings and I also bought some cleaning cloths of various sorts.

Round trip of 397 miles today and 391 on Thursday, so I'm now fairly tired.

Big Thanx to all :happy2: 8) :happy2:

....That's a great pic! I wonder who took it :wink:. What were the others like?

But you didn't scare me in The Red Temptress. You weren't too sure about her at first but then got the feel of her.

Any other pics from people?

Great day, enjoyed it but left early(ish) after buying a bluefin and having the files loaded there and then  :evilgrin:

If I'd have stayed any longer I'd have been phoning Blue Flame, asking eveyone for a look at their induction kits and ordering a HPFP  :scared:

Drive home was interesting  :grin:

On the subject of RR accuracy, there was a load of hoo-ha over on Briskoda.net about Revo's power claims on the Octavia Vrs MKII.
A load of the guys on there fell someway short of Revo's power claims on both stage1 and stage2 maps on JKM's rollers in Portsmouth, in fact no one got close to the claimed figures. However, they were all extremely happy with the way their cars drove on the Revo Software. (This also involved Revo getting involved in the forum discussions)

It seems to me that both Revo and Superchips have RR's which produce similar figures, so either JKM read under or Superchips and Revo both read over, or maybe a bit of both. All I can really say is that in the same way the Octavia boys were happy with the way their Revo mapped cars drove (regardless of RR figures)...... I'm delighted with the way my otherwise standard ED30 is now driving on Superchips code. It rocks  :happy2:

Now seriously considering an exhuast upgrade, not really for the power (well a bit) but for the fantastic noise kicked out by some of the cars in the mini convoy from Chievely services  :drool:

Octavia Vrs MKII - KO4, forge twintercooler, S3 Injectors, APR HPFP, RS4 FP Valve, Pipeworx 3'' DP and Sports cat, Piper non res exhuast, ITG Maxogen, Quaife Dif, sachs clutch kit, NQSBBBK with RS4-2 pads, H&R SS Coilovers with adjustable koni inserts.
Good for 328 BHP on JKM's rollers !!

Many people have said what a cracking day it was and I would have to agree. :happy2:
On a more personal note thanks to MatEd30 for my 'package'. :drinking:

Thanks for my package too Hedge. Finishes the engine bay off nicely, although it will be coming off again soon for a spot of "dressing" :wink:
Golf R gone.

It is a nice addition but I should have checked as it has been in its box for a good 9 months.  :ashamed:

With a bit of tlc it should be good. The Skoda dealers mechanics never even noticed the EVOMS was on.

As a bit of a side note I checked my mpg with a top to top refill and did 265 miles on £50 of fuel at 1.04 a litre = 10.6 gallons

So an average of 25mpg :happy2:

Must've been the spirited driving on the way home and the two runabaouts I did that dragged the figure down from the 33mpg I was getting as I turned up at S/C central :laugh:

Thanks to Autoperfection for the lovely drying cloth - looks almost too good for the car :love:

Haha, I knew you wouldn't be able to resist Neil :laugh:

Just remember to blame me in full when your daughter says you are having even more of a midlife crisis when she feels the increase in power from the HPFP for the first time :laugh:
