Its got a tuning box on it at the moment - 193bhp. It is fairly quick, especially in mid-range but its the sort of car that "makes progress" rather than being "fast". Certainly no remapped T5

I am looking to get it remapped before Christmas (~210bhp) but am considering getting one of the T5's mapped too

Our most popular upgrade is the D5 at the moment

Yes the 304/310 is the flywheel figure. Ive no idea what 249whp equates to in flywheel figures, but yes its pretty good for a 9 year old car with 116k miles on the clock and running lower boost than it should. Forgot to say aswell, it only has the rica ecu and an itg panel filter. No exhaust mods etc.

Im happy, and thats what counts. Having said that, I already have a 19T in the garage, so once other things have been done that will be sorted along with a custom remap.
hi, 310 manual, 304 auto.
on the 850's anyhow.
