Sounds like you need to get the timing gear strapped on it and see what she can do now! So is the remap really that much more noticeable?

very noticeable and worth every penny, give Don a ring he will help to put your mind at rest because he said to me if your not happy he'll put it back to how it was, so you'll have nothing to lose.

She's like a new car!!! worth every penny and not as many pennies as I thought at £295. Easily the most 'bang for bucks'
