Plus i'm sure other things would need to be changed/adjusted/replaced to go with the extra blow.

Quick, get yourself to the next RR day and see how it compares....  :wink:

It needs to go to stealth yet for a tune up. Gonna try for the last week in feb I think. Get her all mapped up :-)

 :cool: what was she pushing the last time you checked?

yep but 1980's style turbo lag would be super fun  :grin:


I don't think a semi will give the same results

I know, I may ask stealth about other plug in maps for the Gayjet. Its nice been on the original K-Star system but also a massive pain in the crack. Then I could run 3 or 4 different maps, running an uber boost map at the end nearing 20 psi or somthing for super awesome fun with 80s lag turning into front wheels lit up and me heading into a field.

You wouldnt beleive the pleasure my 3k car gives me against most 'sporty' cars. Had alot of fun with an astra VXR 888 Edition the other day, he overtook me and then slowed down and kept speeding up whenever I wanted to get past. At the next roundabout he shot off so I though right baby, stretch your legs... I sat up his arse whilst powering off up to about 30mph(officer) and thought it was weird that I was accelerating at the same rate as his 190bhp astra and not alot quicker. Then I realised I was on low boost, so got myself an extra 40 donkeys and flew up his arse and around him  :evil:

I should think it will just be the same, but stop it running lean at the top end which will be nice

My Volvo T5 was the same, turbo lag was around 2 secs, gave you time to brace yourself (it was not standard btw)
