Mine isn't slow - 14.9 1/4

Standard 150's are shit slow though ill admit that become alot better with a remap getting about an extra 30bhp. And on some AUM engines you can get over 200 with just a remap due to them having a slightly different turbo but a conservative map.

Would love one in a mk1/2 though
