Oh yes

Yeah nice torque line too! No clutch killer spike which is good

I dont know if it will affect the final run today or the adaptation's but the car did have 3 didferent maps on it today so I'm guesing theres a lot for the ECU to learn so it should get even better

 

[EL]

Don't forget mate the engine was probably running hot by the time they managed to get the final map on. Stick it on the rollers at the next rolling road day and I'm sure you will see a bit more. Regardless of numbers that boost curve is bang on, one of the reasons I love my map done by the guys as its all usable with no stupid spikes

 

[RS6]

Thats pretty sweet DK bet your pleased with that! strange how the maps needed to be changed there

I need to get mine back down to AMD mine was running the forge tip with my result of 319.4lb/ft torque and AMD's stage 2 map + airbox

now running revo stage 2 and badger 5 tip with jetex cone so be interesting to see what happens with the setup now!

glad your happy! makes it more fun to drive deffo!

 

[D.K]

It's only running a little bit more torque than it was before but it now holds it longer

There will be a RR day at AmD sometime around Feb or March so keep your eye's open

The car was flying today, nail the throttle and it will put you in the back of the seat like you'd expect, even on half throttle it is devastatingly quick hold it at 15ish PSI and it fly's with no effort
The exhaust and DV noise has increased aswell

The Snow Foam Lance is such a good piece of kit isn't it! I personally use Super Snow Foam with my lance, that gives a very effective covering, without stripping wax etc. I haven't seen the PH neutral product before, so I think I might give this ago next, as it seems to have very good write ups when referring to its strength in cutting through grime effectively; it looks like it got right to it in your pictures?

The car is looking tops as always Darren. Happy New Year!

Nice purchases there Darren although you can't really call that dirt. I will bring my dirt bag down and then you can test this stuff

Happy new year mate!

 

[t0m]

Mmmm a wet LCR

So you happy with the purchases then mate? Thinking of getting the lance sorted out next year and foaming up my LCR

Thanks James and happy new year mate

TBH I was'nt that impressed with the snow foam
There was about 3 weeks worth of dirt on the car, it was only spray from driving on wet greasy roads but the SF did'nt touch it, even after 2 coats it still did'nt even softern it, I ended up spraying it on the car and then going over a wash mit and shampoo, I spoke to Maz after and he suggested maybe spraying it with a pre wash cleaner like Auto Finesse Citrus Power which I've got.
