Nice to see everyone yesterday, had a good day...

Ryan's standard ed made 231 iirc.

Steve, your graph curves looked smooth, R-Tech map must be running well, get your graph up.  :party:

As you wish  :innocent:

Regardless on output being it was quite a hot day, I need a bigger intercooler  :grin:

Pretty smooooth delivery of power which the RTech remap sells itself, brilliant for fast performance with little wheelhop nor excessive wheel spin as with more aggressive Remaps.

Fuel graph looks pretty good and safe aswell



Untitled Saint steve

This was my old stage 2 remap from Bluefin Superchips, if you look at the torque curve in comparison , then your see why there is such a huge difference in performance in terms of being able to lay the power down.. Torque spike and very bad traction issues with so much more torque ..

How she looked, dirty as usual  :ashamed:

Found a possible reason for the Missing Ponies as a few may point out, since scanning the car , I have an intake runner error that's appeared, which after consulting Alex from AKS via Niki Gower at Rtech, can Zap the power and in some cases can be felt by the driver which I never knew it could.Or it could just be the warm weather, as other tuned cars were also 20-30bhp down on expected numbers.

Apart from the obvious Temperature difference from my run at Rtech in April and now JKM in August ,to get full potential of Rtech map, I really need a THS intercooler or at least a S3 intercooler to help increase power without stressing the engine to its limits.

But, in saying that, my car run 285bhp at jkm on stage 2 bluefin, but when it was run at Rtech,showed 315bhp?

Again 30bhp difference between 2 different rolling roads, and again 30bhp down from RTechs 331bhp, but may be clutching at straws, or another thing about Dynos being lotterys when calculating bhp?

Still drove home with said Grin on my face from this sharp eyed Photographer..
