Oh ****.

Re: New JTD 1.9 owner

Some of our members had an 'interesting' experience with Angel tuning remaps. You should bring it down to a FF Red Dot rolling road day to see just how much power you actually have rather than what you were told you have

I might well do that at a later date. I've no complaints at the moment though, as the power and acceleration have noticeably increased despite the slipping clutch. It'll be great to get my new clutch fitted soon to get the full benefit.
