Hopefully going into body shop this week!
Define, you don't need anymore power, its quick enough without being difficult to manage. Do remember this is just a 4 pot not a big v8! I'm loving my car because i got crazy good fuel economy from it than i did before, I'm pushing 300 to a tank now where as i was only getting about 270 before.
Only down side is stopping my right foot from getting excited

Mine has dropped from around 28mpg average to 22mpg.
Still loving every moment of it though. Just a shame the weather is so crap at the moment. Next outing will probably be for Mimms in a couple of weeks.

I asked Chris to map safely, I emphasized i wasn't after big numbers, I wanted a reliable car that still drove OEM. He has delivered a car that drives fantastic if I'm honest... The only down side i can think of is its slow to catch the revs when coming up to a junctions, it dives to around 300rpm before slowly picking up.

What was your power figure then on a "Safe" map?
Just interested to see how it differs.
I found mine feels a bit like it did before (Bit more power) up to around 5k rpm, then the real fun begins and it REALLY starts shifting.

I think 350whp would be nice, probably not even notice much difference with 20whp more but sounds a nice number in my head, just dont like to see other cars keeping up with mine lol, especially when they are bog standard! think im getting anywhere between 200-250 depending on how i drive it.
but if anyone has any idea on the belt for the supercharger please say! would be nice to order it today as you get £5 off with the black friday deal on eurocarparts.

Shop around, as eurocarparts are known for raising price before a sale, so a sale is not always as good as it seems.
And mine seems to be the same ref fuel. Doing around 200-250 per tank.

mines recorded as 309whp as i had a misfire at 8k so would have made around 315-320 i reckon as it was still giving more Chris said.
That tank was motorway driving back from Manchester btw so will update with an urban figure when i get the chance
FWIW afr is around 14.7-15 at cruise and idle. Full throttle is around 11-12 but hard to look after 4500rpm :P
