I don't know the cost yet, but I will report back on Saturday! I don't think it will be expensive.

On a different note, I have now done 10,002 miles in Foxy since I picked it up from Leeds! :1st: Hit 37,999 miles tonight on way home from work, I picked it up with 27,997 miles. Not bad for an 03 plate! Chuffed. :funk:

Also, thanks to platinumatt for making my new sig, love it! :)

Well... Today was the first day I have ever been disappointed in Foxy! Bad times.

246bhp and 286lb/ft. :shrug:

I had hoped for 250bhp, but hey ho. Maybe what I have heard is true after all, Custom Code possibly is not the best remap. At least I got some pictures.
For anyone interested, Ricky Gauld charges £35 for two runs.

Don't get hung up on the figures Kat.. Rollers vary from place to place, it's all a lottery as much as people say use these one's use those etc.

Do you have just a stage one with a 3" TIP? Standard exhaust and no fmic?

On another note, she looks superb in the pictures. Bodywork looks stunning.

Thanks Tom. None of the 3 cars got what we expected, one didnt even make standard figures!

My car has Custom Code Stage 1, Jetex Cone, Badger5 TIP, Jabba Heatshield and Forge Upper Boost Pipes. Everything else is standard.

If the map was on before the TIP and jetex I wouldn't expect too much more figures wise, the torque looks real good for a stage one anyway.

So many factors to take into account other than the rollers, fuel you use, old spark plugs can make a difference it's one of those things. Main thing is a smooth curve :) lol.

Yeah, very ture. Iv kinda got over it now, was well disappointed earlier! I kinda feel I don't care so much now, it looks good and I love it, thats the main thing. Although if I was given the choice of a remap, I wouldn't choose Custom Code. Only run on V power, and got new Spark Plugs 8000 miles ago in January.

I wouldn't bother to much about the results. They differ massively from place to place. I made 269bhp/266lbft at star performance on just a remap alone with the added panel filter. I'm on the rollers again in 3 weeks today at performance HQ and I'm guessing I'll be lower lol.

It's how it feels out on the road that really matters.

Good choice im well chuffed with mine. Black hoses? i was thinking spraying mine black but wasnt sure if you can just spray em

Black Hoses, and I would like to spray it black so it's not seen. I know Wayne sprayed his, as I almost bought it before he decided to keep car :( lol.

Thanks :) I have low bhp but high torque. I think I got a bit too hung up on numbers, after seeing what everyone else got.

At the end of the day it's healthy, only got 38k miles, quick enought for a daily runner. Does a 23 year old young lady just fine :D
