Mines defo pulling back up top of revs  :sad1:

1-3rd is amazing, a totally different experience from stage 1 but higher up its just flat ...

Think thats the sounds of my wallet dropping out my ass to get the fuel pump and stage 2 + :(

Haha stage 2 plus is great, shame it keeps fookin raining lately  :sad1:

Gonna change my plugs today aswell. Oh and to give your clutches a easier life, dont do WOT pulls from say 4,5, or 6th gear from 2500rpm as that will just kill it with all that torque going though it. Drive it like a tourer and it will chew up and spit out the clutch.

totally agree with this, I try to avoid pulling high gears and low revs, probably just delaying the inevitable clutch change :smiley:

Sadly not, wish I would have done now. Will get the cars on the dyno again soon enough anyway.

Did you know that there is a dyno dynamics rolling road in bexleyheath? Convinient or what lol.

Gonna change my plugs today, car is really getting on my tits with its intermittent faults.

yeah sanspeed.

Plugs went ok, car still struggling on startup but it does seem to have improved things. Sadly all my revo settings have been wiped and are now at 0 because I disconnected the battery. Think im gonna avoid driving it for a while, and get my brakes and revo setup done together and pay for a indie to do some fault finding for me as im really getting fed up with the intermittent problems.

nice pics, back on the clutch issue your spot on, chugging along in say 4,5 or 6th gear and just using the torque is what calls the clutches.

I had to get mine replaced under warranty and touch wood its been ok since, also they dont like having the clutch slipped on hill starts (i would imagine you cupra/ed30 boys will probably be ok as your not 4wd)

What is this WOT box?

What is this WOT box?

WOT box allows full throttle shifting (without taking your foot off the gas pedal) so it keeps the boost level up !

check you tube there are load of vids!

it can also do a 2step launch control which is cool

can buy them from here - http://www.npcompleteperformance.com/wotbox
