Yeah - When I put it on it was my only mod and it didn't make all that much difference if I'm honest. Noticeable, but not massive.
Coupled with my other mods I think it came into it's own as part of upgrading the engine breathing as a whole. The car now feels almost strangled at high revs...
Nah. You need a car to put them on really ;)
I do also have decat/inlets/zorst,.... but taking the Maxogen off has left my car feeling handicapped lol.
Don't ever, ever take it off. Seems to take forever to get to 7k in 3/4 and my car now has the throttle repsonse of a bus again.
I miss mine already. :( :(
Fair point ^
You'd could get your car into the 190's with those mods but you'd need to put it on a serious diet to get it down to the ton.
Spare + toolkit are about 18kg iirc.... backs seats about 25kg....lightweight buckets..... aircon removal.... door cards.... soundproofing.... engine...
You'd be better off listening to the sarcy idiots than the clueless idiots who tell you to take a piece of your car for no reason, because they read some other idiot say it was the best thing to do.
I took mine off 3 years ago, for s***s and giggles. All that occured was it got louder and...
I'd just remap the DCi. I fail to see the point in the 1.6's tbh. No performance, not frugal.... you may as well get a 1.4 for the difference and get cheaper insurance to boot.
The ratios are the same!! The only difference is the speedo drive as Tom has already said!!!!
Although he's wrong about the ph-1 box. Gears are tooo looooong imho.
Maybe i should try changing a few settings then..... certainly 'out of the box' it's not the best software I've ever used. I prefer the media library in WMP 11 tbh.
I'll give it another go... although I haven't used my ipod for that long I've forgotten where it is lol.
Come to the midlands Dan. We'll film your 106 sticking with my 172 and then it'll be put to bed forever...........Or another thread will pop up next week with the same amount of BS in and no one will pay a blind bit of notice to anything but the figures in Evo. lol
