Have you had much time driving it to be able to compare it to the ST?
How do they compare, ST's are meant to be torquey but a bit unexciting??

The APR remap can be had as a switchable map through the cruise control.

Cruise control (if you don't have it) Ã‚£150
APR power map Ã‚£583 inc vat
Extra program Ã‚£99 + vat.

I got mine at Awesome GTI. :smiley:
