Vibs, yeah, the 16v is a very revvy engine, im not suprised that power doesn't really peak yet. Usually there around 7000-7800rpm. But at that limit is when the internals start to wear easily. But just valse springs and con rod bolts are all thats needed really. Conrods themselves arn't too bad till u get to 8000rpm + territory.

I'd remap what you've got unless you're going to uprate your internals.

Wouldn't worry about a decat to be honest. Nice if you're getting the rest of the system around it, but I wouldn't buy it specifically otherwise.

really depends to behonest. your probably looking at about another 10hp peak. really depends on the car. what fuel you use, how much advance you can use etc etc. if your after the most power then go in running SUL rather than 97.

strathclyde autotune I think. you turn up the raod opposite harry fairbarin. follow it over the hill and it goes round to the right. you'll see them on the right just past the bend. the units are 220 new and he would have charged me 150 to remap mine to the GT. say that I sent you the guy whoes unichip you removed.

He's passing blame.

You said you thought the engine was shot to fcuk, but in fact it's because he's got a powercap fitted and is nothing to do with him fcuking fatties.
