R Tech remapped my car and it doesn't run out of puff all the way to the limiter but yeah it does have lag below 2.2k revs,
Who drives below 2.2 revs anyway lol!!! I do like the sound of a supercharger though, it seems a bit more exclusive too!!!

Well you defo have had a good remap if it doesnt run out of puff and keeps boosting to the rev limiter,  :smiley: That is true though that you never really rolling aroung less then 2k anyway unless you are at some lights and then by law you have to stop  :laugh: :laugh:

You don't own a Mk2, you support it.

Turbo FTMFW!

Nothing beats turbo boost! I would love to build my VR with a turbo, but after making some calls and pricing up the turbo, pistons, etc, its too much money. Was looking at a GT28 or GT30 with a custom tubular manifold/downpipe and some serious boosting's.

To build a VRT the way I want it, would costs ££££'s so I'm saving that for after uni :D

A few vids I like watching:
