wowzers!

 :drool:

Regarding alignment, from memory mine's running -1.1 camber at the front, -1.5 at the rear with virtually zero toe, seems to work well.  The neg camber on the front really helps the turn-in.  I've had more neg camber on the front and although it's even better in the turns (and would be great on the track) it'll wear the inside tyre edges if you do a lot of straightline driving like i do on my long commute.

Car has been flashed by APR to Stage 2 yesterday. I am so happy with that so far. Solid power till the end of rev range. APR made my day :))

My friend became APR dealer for Czech Republic so it is very close to me for additional upgrades and updates. For me APR and Revo are competitive. If he would go for Revo i would have Revo right now or get it from you.

Is the map torque limited? Hence the dip instead of the peak :)

It is normal APR Stage 2 map. Just need to fit HPFP to see next improvement.

The HPFP is midrange, you lack the torque from app. 2300 to app. 3400rpm that is typical for the K04 turbo  :happy2:
