Re: What's your car history?
Corsa c 2004 1l
Corsa d 2013 1.4 turbo Sri, stage 1 175bhp (clutch ruiner, poor quality remap, caused the clutch to slip pretty much constantly) got bored with that as it was slow as s**t.
Peugeot 207GTI 2008 1.6THP stage 1 210bhp (only reason I got rid was because of the crap timing chain/oil breather design this engine suffers with, otherwise a brilliant car)

Re: What's your car history?
Think it's made a big improvement, better than I expected to be honest. Got it on the first setting +1 at the moment which certainly gives it a nice kick at 3k.CJO wrote:How are you finding the DTUK box? Mine arrived today. Now to wait for the car!jacksb7 wrote:VW Golf mk4 1.6 2012-13

Re: What's your car history?
Good to hear. I've only had the diesel CDT versions previously, you also had to take apart and adjust the pins on to adjust which was a massive pain so I'm curious to see what it'll be like with easy access to the buttons.jacksb7 wrote:Think it's made a big improvement, better than I expected to be honest.

Out of curiosity as the battery is now in the boot for the GTi I assume there must be a positive feed in the fuse box somewhere?
