no, not me mate I see from your sig you have a Hypertech on a stock engine - how are you finding it? I ordered one from FR&R a few days before I picked the car up... new car fever and all that

It' great. I'd best describe it as freeing up the car and improving driveability. It's not a massive power hike but it's more torquey right through the range and a very, very different car above 5500rpm and a very different car from 0-60 if you remove the restrictor in 1st and 2nd. If the graphs are to be believed then just adding a decent SRI/TIP combo and a Hypertech gives massive gains. I've got a few toys to be fitted next week and then I'm gonna get me a SRI/TIP next month and hopefully an uprated TMIC the month after. Should see me nkocking on the door of 300bhp/350lbsft. That's what I'm hoping for anyh00. Going any more than that and you'll need Versatuner or a custom map

that sounds like exactly what I'm after - I don't have any unrealistic expectations about big power etc an SRI/TIP will more than likely be my next mod too. Which one are you going for?

I have ummed and arred about getting the Sure Motorsports Aero and Sidewinder combo - I just think they look amazing for some reason. But I just can't ignore that the Corksport one is soooo much cheaper than any other and it's very likely that there's bugger all difference in performance.

Corksport got to be best value for money I'd say, but they all do the same thing and improve over the highly restrictive stock setup
