I purchased my 2001 Bravo JTD HLX (Phase 3) just before Christmas and its a really good car but i was alittle disappointed in the performance. The performance wasn't too good on acceleration but when the turbo kicked in, it was fun. The turbo only lasted a few secs and died at 3500rpms, to my knowledge at the time i thought a rev limiter.
But.....
Anyway today i got the biggest grin of all after i replaced the Mass Air Filter Sensor with a new one as recommended by Nige (AngelTuning). The car is so much more faster and responsive than my previous Bravo 115 16V HLX, the car accelerates so much more quickly to 60 its astonishing. This diesel shifts. Dunno who wrote the 0-60 times for these cars but this car is under rated.
The car throws you into the back seats upon acceleration, its wicked.
The car sounds good even under hard acceleration, like my 115. I love this car.
I recommend a JTD to anyone, this is my 2nd diesel car and i doubt i'll ever go back to petrol ever again. Wasn't too keen on my non turbo'd 1st car so my 115 was a delight to own, but now the JTD is the king of the Bravos.
I don't even think its worth remaping, god knows the previous owner may of done it already, but however i'll still be paying Nige a visit.
Recommendation Rant Over.
Thanks Nige!!!!!!
