Cool How much difference?

Hi All,

I have been away for a while and have just got back and start thinking again about getting the car re-mapped.

2005-C70-Auto-T5 (245bhp standard I think)

So how much difference will there physically be on the road?

0-100 time ?
1/4 mile
0-60 - might be a bad indicator as it will want to burn the rubber off?

When moving the car is pretty quick but I want extra grunt.

Tubby,

If you are around maybe you could tell me how the car performs with the map.
