Righto.
After giving the car another little test on the way home yesterday I'm finally going to give a little report on the remap.
Some people may of noticed my questions about the flat spot at 3 to 3.5k. After testing it again yesterday I didn't really notice it. I'm not sure what was going on there really. Maybe the MAF is dirty or the car was getting used to the map. Either way, it's not present now, but I shall be keeping watch for it!
So onto biz. P-torque. It was a 2 hour+ drive to performance torque in wolverhampton, and in my opinion entirely worth it.
Will over there was extremely helpful, and got me out of a jam by fitting me in at an awkward time, which would otherwise of prevented me from getting it done for a month or so.
I got to watch an entertaining clarkson DVD while the car was being done. Got a free diag check (no problems), the remap (LCR) and forge 007 fitted in under an hour. After that was done, we took it for a quick blat down the road to make sure I was happy (and it certainly helps that the estate he's on has half mile completely straight and quiet stretch of road!). After that, I handed over the 395 notes and drove off happy!
The car pulls nicely from 2k and like a train from 2.5. If I hold the throttle down (which i'll admit I haven't needed to do much!) it'll pull smoothly all the way past 6k without any noticeable drop in power.
Now, from what I've seen on this forum of rolling road results of p-torque maps they always come up highly, and have never seen a bad result. So it begs the question, why go for more generic and expensive map , which is almost 600 and that's not including the 007!
I'd go to the bell auto's and P-torques of this world every time!
If this thread is better placed somewhere else, someone feel free to move it!
