Im sooo torn over one of these at the min, I could drive down to stafford with £200 quid in my pocket then a few hours later be driving back up north with 170 BHP

thing putting me off now is will I cook the clutch

I never do full throttle starts most of my accelerating is from 20 - 30 mph 2nd gear stuff, most of my driving is town driving too along with the odd motorway mission to cardiff ever few weeks

Should I or shouldnt I

Torque figures before and after?

Clutch will be fine if you don't do standing starts IMO.

You have to declare remaps? If you were to have an accident would they actually send the ECU off for testing? I know you should declare it, but you could always say it came like it couldnt you? As theres no physical difference to give it away...
