Gave the car a good drive. Here are my personal findings

.Throttle response is improved

.if you lose grip and come off the throttle and back on again boost is instant.

.On gear change even on minimum acceleration the car has more of a whooshing noise on gear change/lift off.

.it certainly feels a bit more "spritely" :)

I'm on 18" with 40 profile tyres and the ride is fine mate. I had 19" and 35s at one point but that was a bit hard for my liking so they only lasted 3 days haha

Where is a good place to look for alloys lads?

Also looking at lowering too seen this name mentioned "Eibach sportlines"

Well I was up till 2am last night. Dry roads with no cars logging away.

Here is my honest findings.

With the specific apr tune on my car, past 3000 rpm with the DV+ my car actually lost boost as opposed to my brand new rev D by quite margin. It was only when doing WOT RUNS FROM 4th gear 2000 rpm- later I noticed it wax taking longer than usual and the torque higher up the rev range had flat lined prematurely. I fitted the REV D back on and the difference in high end torque was drastic, however I stand by saying throttle response was slightly improved.


Don't bother buying this kit to go faster, I have just burned £110 lol
