Remap day on Tuesday... can't wait. Got some prep to do this weekend, fit a new DV and clean out the MAF but roll on those 200 ponies

Not only 200 ponies but you've got the mivec V6 shreik too.... I'm hoping the coming 220ft lb's of torque will help in some way to offset my car's lack of good looks, carisma and a decent sounding engine..

I admire your honesty Shane

Looking forward to the before \ after comparisons, thats a lot of Ibs per ft of torque to be playing around with....

Ah sure you have to tell it like it is. The Golf is good craic and pretty functional but for pure driving pleasure the FTO completely outshines it

Aye, I'm looking forward to that myself - it's been feeling a bit flat lately - I suspect the MAF night need to be cleaned (doing it this weekend) and this is affecting performance

Tuesday evening should be fun

All I can say is..... amazing! Totally transforms the car - only had a chance to play with the low down pull on the way home but so far very impressed. Wheel alignment with dave mccann is next up...

Good stuff, result! When you're out by Dave McCann, give me a shout, I'm only up the road.

I might head out either tomorrow or thursday lunchtime - more likely to be thursday. I'll give you a shout if you want...
