I took the car along with Mylo off to AmD Essex today for a bit of Christmas fun
The aim was to finally put the stage 2 AmD map on the car, I've had all the suporting hardwear mods for awhile now so thought it was time for a new map.
Before any mapping was done the car had a run on the rollers to check what power it was producing, it made a heathy 290BHP (Not sure what the torque was)
It was then scaned for any fault codes, this all came back clear.
Then it was time for the stage 2 map
The results were a bit mixed we got 295BHP but only 240LB/Ft, it had lost 66LB/FT over my previous best run.
We tried another file but the car would'nt produce any more torque
The last time the map was tweaked was after it came back from Milltek after doing the development work for the new Turbo back exhaust system, At the time Kenny made 2 new map's, 1 with a bit more boost than what I had a stage 1 and another with even more boost, Kenny had kept both these maps so we decided to give the one with the higher boost a go, This map should instant results and made 290.9BHP & 325LB/FT thats more like it They are looking into the stage2 map to see where all the torque went so the full stage 2 might still go on but in the mean time I'm running another "custom" map
On the road the car feel's even more savage than before, when I left AmD the roads were very wet and it was dark so I did'nt give it too much but but the boost certainly comes in a lot stronger, I even had what felt like wheel spin in 6th gear at 60MPH
Big thanks to everyone at AmD Essex
