I really like the APR Map after having REVO on my car aswell which i think was more aggressive than apr
i get really good gains with the other stuff ive done with mine.

each to there own. all maps are good its just need to know how you wanna drive the car.

And ive fitted my power gasket there is no pics of this cause i did it on sat night after work in the dark, i wanted it on that much and a rest on the sat.

After a good run on sunday night it pulls a lot harder and the inlet mani fold was stone cold when i popped the bonnet and felt it.

Defo worth the money. pretty cheap mod really £60 to my door. took me about 15 mins to fit the gasket really easy

It's a spacer between the intake manifold and the head.
This stops the heat transfer between the two metal surfaces with putting in a Phenolic material, like nylon.
I believe Badger 5 did a group buy on these.
I got mine from INA

Yea you get a bit more power cause you getting more colder denser air in to the engine and thats what they love carnt get enough of it.

advantages are better response, probs better fuelling with more air getting in.the manifold is cold to touch so you dont burn yourself when leaning on the engine.They are simple to fit took me 15 mins. just remove all the bolts that hold down the inlet manifold pull it back a small bit slip the new gasket in and rebolt down. £60 well worth it

Just read through this John; very nice motor. Enjoyed the Donny video too. Mine is pretty much completely standard still but there's a lot of inspiration in this thread. My bank manager thanks you
