Took the lifeless lump to the 'Ring

[C.J]

Spent 6 days with my bro travelling through France, Blegium Holland and Germany, as well as stopping at the 'Ring for the day.

Had the car mapped before I went, which made a huge difference, can't believe I didn't do it sooner.

It handled well, and was more fun than I expected. The 'ring was demanding though, my first lap was shocking and hard work.

The track was closed twice due to accident/oil. Each closure lasted around 1.5hours

Overall a great day, and planning my return trip.

Chris will be along shortly to tell you that you wasted your time going to the ring, seeing as you get no steering feel from the TT!

Sounds like a good trip, i can't wait to go back!

It is pretty wide in areas, plenty of room for overtaking, even on the corners.

Everyone should try it at least once, it's cheap too.

I had a custom one done at a place in York, took them around 6 hours. 40bhp and 80lbs torque iirc.

MPG has improved too, about 50miles to a tank difference on steady driving.

The power is instant, almost zero lag.

Yep the bams love it! Even my pesky AUM got a increase of almost 60bhp and 80ft lbs after a map.. lol

I suppose in the TT's case, it literally felt like doing it on the Playstation.

Looks like nice weather...you got lucky!
