To be honest this is the last car im doing a favour for, mainly down to the attitude from CS members, i drove to Kent, 80% wired his car up for him FOR FREE, didnt even ask for petrol money which in the clio was a tank there and back, sorted out some fantastic prices on bits for him, then he brings his car for mapping which will be done out of work hours as were doing it for a fovour for him, if he wants to pay £100+vat per hour i'll get it strapped in the rollers now and get it done, however he doesnt want to, so people who do want to pay that will come first.


edited, poor spelling....

I dont think the peak power was as expected, however if it was the 115bhp standard engine not the 123bhp then its awesome!

I over layed the graph of my old 190bhp engine and this should pull alot harder lower down, power was leveling at 6500 so didnt rev it much more than that, no point and with the engine having no back groud best to play it safe!



pretty impressive!

after thinking about it im happy with that, torque is great, although dropping off towards the end

its down to the xe1 cams, killing the engine

best get a move on with another set of pistons

That really odd, I got 135lb/ft at TOTD on standard engine just with the manifold/exhaust... But then again my headers are really really really short
