Interesting week with Awesome and APR

[vRStu]

I've been running the Autotech Fuel Pump on my Octy since January and it is well worth the money.  There is a new release from a company called KMD which seems to be identical but cheaper.

Currently running Stage 1 REVO while I wait for some other parts to be made  but even with Stage 1 the improvments are huge.  No fuel cuts and much smoother acceleration right through the range.

I've also been involved with the Stage II + software for the K03 200ps TFSi which is awesome and should be released very soon.

Nice results

I'm assuming those figures are at the flywheel and not the wheels

Yes usual UK measurement - Calculated FWHP.

great figures for a K03 car, just shows its early days for the Tfsi engine and people are learning all the time how to release its full potential

Have you released any "extra potential" this week?

no, tuesday hopefully, they had some really good results with the S3 and the fuel pump, so hopefully they will sort the ED30 version before they go home.

So, do we still reckon on around 310bhp with the updated stage 1 with just the Carbonio?  I wonder what it will get with the Milltek TBE on top?

[gazbutmk5gti]

hopefully, we'll see next month won't we. How is the Milltek doin, I wasn't to keen on the APR exhaust fitted to their demo car it was a bit to noisy for my likin, what about the Milltek

Good info there Gaz.

The DSG does come into its own when on todays jammed roads.  Did it take you long to get used to driving it with the DSG box, I do find you learn a slightly different style than with the manual.  Impressive gear changes though arn't they!!

[gazbutmk5gti]

No didn't take long to get used to it, apart from slamming the brakes on a few times looking for the clutch pedal when parking .
The gearchanges are fantastic and it goes without saying the DSG cars will be quicker of the line, theres no way you could compete with them changes in a manual.
