Great stuff David, a cracking result and write up.

I jumped straight to stage 2 and the car ran flawlessly. I'd have been eager to see what results you got with that map, but I guess that's for another time.

Back to stock as I'm having the fluids changed this week.

My impressions on the stage 2....

- car feels more silky and smooth at low revs and gears than stock

- power delivery is far more linear and the little bit of turbo lag is far less noticeable, almost non-existent.

- 6th gear pull at motorway speeds is amazing. Might sell my 5th gear!

- Fuel economy seems much improved. Usually on a good blat run, the needle is in freefall, but stage 2 seems less thirsty. (havent recorded any mpgs to compare though)

All in all, as long as the HPCs dont notice this week, I'll be running stage 1 myself until i'm sure my AFR numbers are on the money.

I'm definitely going to look at an etune very shortly just to be safe.
