It was screwed up after the v-pro was first fitted but it went back to TDI and was sorted. However I've never run it right down to know fully. I was doing Anfield and back with just under a 1/4 tank left from full which is a 300 mile round trip and some very spirited driving.

aztecbandit1 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Very good news matey, that light at the end of the tunnel seems to have got a lot brighter over the past couple of weeks? :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adie Posted December 20, 2008 Author Share Posted December 20, 2008 Very good news matey, that light at the end of the tunnel seems to have got a lot brighter over the past couple of weeks? :D It certainly does mate. It moved along very quickly since its been at SPC Horsham. :D I was told some power figures a few weeks ago whilst it was on the dyno but can't remember exact figures. The car I think is running 1.2 bar not 1.4 bar that it was before. But the car works properly this time. Its not all about the power for me anymore. At 1.2 bar I think the figures were around 340bhp and 370 torque. But as soon as I see the final figures I shall post up. The power figure on 1.2 bar is less than the 1.4 bar figure but the torque is the same as SPC Horsham seem to have done a top job with the mapping.

Sounds great and plenty of power should be crazy, as you say as long it's working and you can get some pleasure out of this saga is the key thing now surely.. You can always go push it further at a later date but that sounds alot already hehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
