This allows the potentometer to open further and instruct the ECU to add extra fuel to mix with the extra air.




16v's have mechanincal injection, don't they? :undecided:


I would'nt bother tbh

I thought that was a load of b@lss tbh, I was more interested in the polishing and removing the of the "steps"

You are right.  The bhp increase would be nominal however the throttle response should be slightly sharper.
