Yeah, he has issues, but nothing to do with the clutch.

Yes an No.

Its just issues with the car that where already there. The remap has just made them worse as its putting that little bit more stress on the car. I get the impression Steve is a lazy bastard and just lives with it :D

I don't think I'll ever be convinced :undecided: The extra poke would be nice, but not at the expense of (possibly) a new clutch and more expensive insurance premium.

Cheeky bugger  :grin:

I've had the N75 valve go, once that was fixed the intercooler pipes kept blowing off, this was down to worn lugs and the wrong clips.
2 new pipes and now its cured, sort of  :undecided:

All depends what you want for a car. Remapping yours, upgrading the clutch and keeping it healthy and serviced will turn it in a SERIOUS tool.

How much would the flywheel be just out of interest?
