Had a blast out today and all I can say is wow! Very Happy
Bob has done a great job with the mapping, the power is amazing no lag it just goes like shittt off a shovel in any gear.
That's it now power wise 405bhp just feels perfect on the road next step will be a gearbox.

Big thanks to Andy Kindon for all the work he has done on the car, the engine is quiet and doesn't use a drop of oil in-between changes. Cool


Cool

Good read. I've just picked up a hatch yesterday. It's stock but I'm also aiming for around 400bhp. First job is to get it booked in with mr kindon.

I'll put a project thread up soon as I'm keen to get started. Just need to do the research and figure out what I'm going to need to see 400bhp. Haven't had a scooby in a while so I'm a bit out of touch with what upgrade path to take.

Thinking of cutting my rear diffuser out to show the exhaust more and make the rear a bit more aggressive. What do you think?
It will make polishing the exhaust easier as well so I can get them stains off.  scratch

Obviously I don't own or no how to use photoshop so an attempt was made using paint.  ROFL

Nowt wrong with that mate, I'm just a bit surprised. You cant see mine at all, yours must be massive by comparison.

not keen on that tbh, maybe if the exhaust was *really* polished it'd look ok?

What about if I do the main box high temp satin black and just polish the quads?

The box does polish up nice when you can be arsed. Wink

Looks *much* better like that, but it'd be a right pain keeping it that way! I think I'd be inclined to paint the box black personally. It's a shame there isn't something along the lines of a diff guard you could fit over the top of it, that'd look pretty aggressive.
