OK everyone seems I need to own up to being bit of a NUMPTY!!!!!
Took the car out for a longer run this afternoon, and guess what???
we have VTec yo.....oops wrong car!!!
further to my opening post - I think I may have not let the car come up to temp correctly, so am I right in saying that on a 182 the water temp showing halfway does not mean the oil is up to temp etc etc ( my P1 used to have defi gauges giving me stacks of info)?
The map now seems to have kicked in, and jeez it transforms the car so so so much......unbelievable torque curve., the car pulls and pulls all the way to 7800rpm.
just been out hooning the thing around for over an hour, I seriously seriously can"t stress how good these maps are.
so again - apologies for being a NUMPTY.
