yes, spot on joe, the wife wont be able to tell the difference,i phoned her and said id had it done and i got an enthusiastic reply just like she'd had a wisdom tooth out!........... get the idea  :wink:

anyway milly is on along with yes im sorry joe another mod, could resist but ive had a green Cotton air filter supplied to have fitted, which stu (vRSTu) was a star and fitted it for after our little sprint back to his house afterwards.
Well, absolutley love it, sounds the buzziness, both air and exhaust makes her feel alot more crisp and responsive, MPG has increased with both additions, but ive only done a few miles but so far so good.
Your in trouble now joe come santa pod if you still have the black beauty by then. :wink:

We were looked after as always by kate and the gang at JKM.


 Full english down the cafe down the road in which Robin, myself and Stu went and had a feast.

Rolling road results were interesting, lee (Cocopops) is i expect on the blower to superchips right now complaining on his missing horsepower.
Chris (WHITEGTI) was sort of pleased with his but underead aswell as Redrobins

Robins hit 236.4bhp
chris (WHITEGTI) 245bhp
Lee (COCOPOPS) 270bhp

but although they were lower then what all had hoped all were more pleased with the smooth torque curves which didnt disapoint.

All in all a fun morning out .............. oh yeah and me with my new present  :wink:

Yep, I'm downloading a new map as I type...

Don't get me wrong, the 270bhp and a very flat torque curve is nice... but when someone says you can have 300... you want 300!  :signLOL:

Will get the new map uploaded and then I'll have to arrange for another trip to JKM to get it tested for what it should be!

also phil.... did you not have a RR before and after? would be interesting to see if a cat back made a difference to torque or bhp, usually when i put a cat back on it feels quicker! but i think its the sound that makes it "feel" quicker  :smiley:

im sure ive made no more the about 4-5bhp and about a 10 Lb ft increase on torque, i will re run her on the rollers in january, but i expect no more then 240bhp being realistic. JKM said 1bhp for the filter and a few for the Zorst.

Looking back at the previous RR results, RR got 230.5 bhp. Still appears quite off. :surprised:

Philly with the milly, how's it sound? Bet you gave it loads of welly on the M27. :wink:
And the pipes - is it me or do they not stick out as much as the stock ones?

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Phil, the exhaust will change note after a few more miles - and sound even nicer.  Looks lovely

Yep Manual.
I was told when I got the map (in Oct) that it was stage2... but when I called up, the guy told me it was the "low power map"... So very confused!  :confused:
