It's a proven, scientific FACT that yellow ones are faster, so shut it :p

Will be interesting though. My Mrs' is coming along too in her standard Puma, so at least we will have a standard car as a benchmark. Might let her go on before me, just so I can't prepare myself and my excuses :lol:

Because Fly figs of 194-200 (the lower end guess) is really poor IMO most stock cars (or non-remapped) get close to the Manufacturers figures.

VAG specialists like Stealth and Jabba etc have been know to see 230-250bhp for stock cars (250bhp was on a 225LCR at Stealth).

Anything sub-200bhp is either
- Conservative
- The RR is inaccurate beyond comprehension
- Your car is not running right

If it's sub-200 I'll walk out of there laughing! :lol:

I know the car is running well (touch wood...) and I know the mods have made some improvement, even if only minor. I also know I have no trouble in keeping up with, or passing, the likes of CTR's and ST's, so there is no doubt in my mind that it's running OK :)

But Dyno Lottery has to be worth a punt, so I thought I'd open the game up to everybody so we can all play ;)

Will do... and will do! Probably in reverse order though if I'm honest. Remap is on the cards, just not yet. Short shifter should be happening soon :)

when was last time you did an ecu reset?
ever used different fuel since last reset?
how long is drive there?
how long will car be sitting before the run?

223 WHP

Is it worth doing an ecu reset? i've been using Tesco 99 without fail for the last 3 months in my car, will it not automatically adjust for this type of fuel etc etc??

It's worth doing an ECU reset every now and again, but not that often really. Usually it's worth doing after you have changed anything on the car as over time it adapts to changes anyway, but a reset can speed up the process.
