Afternoon..
Just another update, since the last I have had 2.5" cat-back fitted with twin tip, had the bottom of the rear bumper painted black, mirrors painted red and 'abarth style' side stripes, see what you think:
And then finally got round to getting it mapped yesterday at PD tuning after reading some good reviews about them, Dave was the guy in charge and after telling him my mods and that it had already been remapped in the past he decided that it needed to have a standard map uploaded onto it to start from scratch.
So first of all he RR'd it to see what power it was running, it made 163bhp and 205 ftlb but the air/fuel mixture was terrible running too lean at some parts and too rich in others
The standard map was then uploaded producing 150bhp and 180ftlb making sure everything was okay and then the mapping process began, tweaking the map and RR'ing it each time to get the most potential. A good while later and it was complete, hitting a 166bhp and 220ftlb of torque
Looking at the graph it shows that mine doesnt peak as high as other T-jets but the power seems to increase much earlier in the rev range
Afterwards Dave explained to me that the next modification had to be an uprated intercooler and showed me a graph of a T-jet he had done with the same mods as mine with the intercooler installed, it showed the boost and torque holding for much longer, hitting over the 170bhp mark
He also said that it wont need to be mapped again for the intercooler luckily, so iv decided that is definately my next investment
