Default Smile on face once more

In the last couple of weeks my scoob has been down to Jaffa for an MOT.Thanks Tone spot on as always.
Had a few service items and extras fitted.
Yesterday it got treated to a special clean, and today i have been over to see Simon JGM for a much needed remap.
Not looking for big power at all, but its brought a big smile back to my face.
Simon,great stuff today, very profesional, went like clockwork.
Holding 1.35 bar and transformed the way the power is delivered.

A few pics of the car after its special bit of loving, its actually better than when i got it 9 yeras ago.
Pics dont really do it justice, being white its hard to show just how much depth the paint has now.







A couple on return from mapping, bloomin things covered in dust, time to wrap it back up in its cotton wool

Cheers mate, was hoping to have this and my new scoob for Jap bash, but at least this will be there.

Japan really ought to be closer to the UK

Hi Matey
Was mapped on the road, as i needed it done asap, Simon squeezed it in.
Am taking up to SRR in a few weeks for tweaking and power run.
Its likely to be much the same power as before Power FC but diference now is its done the right way and feels great.

The best power figures from my car before FMIC, injectors, headers and power fc were 299bhp running just around 1 bar. From the feel of it now I would guess it's about 330 max. Will find out soon atSRR when it gets a tweak from Simon.
