It is a good system, and i really enjoy the powervalve aspect that keeps it quiet when i want im hungover. It is worse top end though, not sure if its a more restrictive cat or what but it loses out peak figures wise standard and dtuk stg 2 box when compared to the milltek. Looking forward to a remap though to take account of my induction kit also

Ok cool. Which map and intake system will you be using? Do you have an idea when you will do it?

im waiting for wagners intercooler to arrive which should be 3 weeks hopefully, and then it'll be mapped, i'll let you guess given the name on the dyno plots :wink:

Current intake is the revo/pipercross one but i am toying with the idea of VWR's enclosed system, but even though it will look so much better i doubt it will perform any better so not point changing really, how often do i stand staring at my engine bay lol

Ah cool. I've got my Revo intake ready to go on. It's my preferred intake due to the pipe going straight to the Intake from the filter. No joins mid way causing extra turbulence!
Need to make sure I buy the best performance figures with the exhaust as I only plan on buying one system

Sorry to interject but the best intake on the market so far is APR's Carbonio Intake due to the ram scoop design and enclosed unit. Much better airflow.

Also, the BCS is more restrictive than the Milltek but is quite consistent gains through the rev range. What's the pricing on a full TBE system on the BCS? Can't find pricing anywhere?

Yes and I'm sure when vwrs will be out it too will be the best intake also... We will not know until long after all the releases will be out and people start testing. Ideal conditions an open cone will be better imo but enclosed systems will be better more of time in the real world and cities. Don't know price as was lucky enough to have it developed on mine, email nige I believe it was slightly cheaper than milltek

I've been given a rough price by both companies and the BCS is cheaper than the Milltek by a long way. Only advantage to the Milltek is that they are offering free fitting at the moment

Great. I thought you had your car mapped already Graham? Isn't VWR intake already out? Believe it's an open cone filter design.

How much were you quoted for both Legless? Isit the TBE Cat Back? Which tips?

No I've always had a box but need a map so that all the hardware is taken advantage of

Which map you choosing? Did you feel the gains purely going from your stock exhaust to the BCS? Is cabin noise increased? I can't watch the video at the moment.

You indicate that you're choosing Shark. Are they doing an OBD Port flash able map?
