Had the DPF done and software removed on Wednesday. The car is soooo much more responsive without it. It does smoke a tiny bit now when giving it the beans but it has sorted all my hesitation issues and happy to drive without it regenning every other day.

Big thanks to John at Big Fish Tuning again.

Service parts will be bought over the weekend if I don't buy a Nilfisk power washer from Argos later.

Glad your happy with her Dan! Has that made you want to keep it or you still thinking of a petrol?

Done a quick 4th gear run from 3640rpm to 6600rpm with the TTE 420

WMI defo doing it's job :)



Columns C,D,E,F are timing correction on each cylinder

h is Rpm

j is requested boost (never shows more than 2490mbar)
K is the actual boost

m is rpm
N is mass air flow readings
P is the timing angle

Car is looking happy and healthy :)

Any questions please ask. Due to very little space for high speeds I could only get a 4th gear run from 3640rpm to 6600rpm. To red line the MAF readings get upto around 340 :)

Looks good mate, though I think some plain number plates would look better.

I was gonna ask this too. How is it? What power figures, do you know?

Jimbo

What sort of journeys do you do generally Daniel?

Jimbo

Cars great now, just a shame you can't really use it for pulling away as there's next to no traction until mid way through 3rd. Not sure on exact figures, but from what John @ BFT said it should be between 205-215bhp. I generally do short ish journeys now, my daily commute has gone from 45 miles a day to around 15 lol.

Glad your happy with her Dan! Has that made you want to keep it or you still thinking of a petrol?

Thanks Craig, I'm happy to keep her for now, but I think my next one will be a petrol, though it wont be for at least a year or so as paying for a wedding and saving for a house. Or should I say trying to.

Next thing is MOT and Tax end of the month and service light has popped up but thats no biggy as I'll do it myself.

Once that is done I will get the H&R's and possibly a wheel refurb if I cant afford new wheels.

Hopefully the next one will be a Cupra R so can transfer most bits :D
