The dyno run I have in my profile was with one of your chips in place, sadly I have no 'without' comparison to go with it :(

Nick, revised suspension settings I'm using are 100% front, 75% rear. Be keen to hear how that works out for you ;)

I know bud. I meant a back to back comparison, before and after. Just weird how many I've sold and no-one actually wants to see a base power and after. Appreciate it's money at the end of the day, but if you've got plans for performance mods a base run should be first on the cards IMO.

I now have V1, 2, 3 & 4 in my possession and no way to test them myself - no JDM lude, well no lude actually working! :lol:

Sorry to clog up your profile vanzep. Let me know if your's does have a higher rev limit, be interesting to see if you have anything special hidden away too. V5 perhaps! :lol:

Two years later after some hard work its still not there but it feel like a new car and i can finally see it coming together...
Glad you're seeing light at the end of the tunnel now mate. Looks good :) Mean looking front end! Are you gonna respray it all in red or the same as the front (is that phantom grey?)?

cheers for the comments guys :)
the rear lip is wing west and i do like it
sorry Merc its not for sale...i think Nathan has the same so you could try him - i wanted his sideskirts but he wanted a million quid for them - so that was a no go.
not sure what to do with the paint - but im sorry to say it gets a fair share of unwanted attention from vandals and stupid drivers in supermarkets car parks so im in no rush to splash the cash...was all milano red when i got it but it got keyed right down one side within 2 weeks of me buying it.
Rob i will drop you a pm on the chip.
Graham - thanks for the info on the settings for the koni shocks - i just fitted them and havent looked at the settings as yet.
Ive made a commitment to go out on track this summer but i wont be looking to post any record breaking times as the lude is my daily drive and i plan to keep it ;)

Good work, that's quite a list bud.

I got your payment bud, forgot to bring the chips to work today though! :oops: :tosser: :guns: :suicide:
Will sort it out tonight and it'll be in the post tomorrow. I have another going out to someone on PUK too.

Keep it up bud.

Of all that work though, I've been wanting to use this one:
