Did one today, charged £50 and then £50 for an upgrade to our stage 1.5 map and dyno testing/datalogging. Made 300ftlb and 253bhp

Where are you about?

He's Sunderland   :grin:

Yeah I've had cars serviced there. They have the right oil for the TFSI in stock. They are VERY well thought of round our way.

The website isn't regularly updated if your looking for prices, your best calling.

LOL!! I have contacted them via fb but no reply..I think I will call them tommorow..

"Do you have the gaskets for the pre-cat delete or do you need us to supply them ?"

Right well i did it today, took about 2.5 hours and it does sound a bit better and i get a lovely pop when i rev it and come off the throttle sometimes so bonus there too. I can feel a bit more power at mid range but after logging it peak power hasnt gone up atall, the highest reading is exactly the same as the log i did the other night.

Peak power won't suddenly change, the benefits are made apparent during mapping. How are you logging peak power?
