As i only had these mods done on Saturday, and the custom map today, am i fooling myself to think that in a few weeks when eveything beds in so-to-speak, that those figures may indeed change!!??  :driver:

In a few weeks you will be used to the power and so it will probably 'feel' slower lol

From my logging my turbo wasn't having to work that hard to produce power so would Defoe look in to what Rtech told you mate. they know there stuff. things should have more or less bedded in by now tho.mine didn't really change after performance wise but did notice that mpg went up after a couple of weeks :smiley:

i have immediately noticed a better mpg. Last night, even when it was cooler i was getting about 28.5 mpg and not really booting it, whereas on way home today in hotter temperatures (and booting it) i was getting a steady 32.5!!  :driver:

Wouldnt worry about the clutch I'm stage 1 Rtech map and have 256 bhp with 295 lbs of torque, and my standard clutch hasn't missed a beat. :happy2:

Wish I could say the same, mine is slipping all over the place  :sad1: - even going through the gears properly or flooring it at 3.5k revs in 3rd

Its only done 50k miles but a Helix Clutch is on the cards for 2012  :drool:
