MD321 owners in here please..
No slanging match - I won't enter into one and I suspect neither will Martyn/Alan. Sorry to dissapoint
Engine Tuner are a respected company and I'll not try to discredit them on here or anywhere else. And, I'll not contribute to this thread further unless requested to do so.
Of course there is! But I felt I had to put in my two penny's worth as it has been suggested that MY poor selection of components was responsible for it not making the power! Especially as my car was handed over to the professionals whom I took advice from and expected good results from.
TX.
As I said I'm not here to discredit them, just correcting Martyn when he said it was an STI3 top mount, when in fact it was an STI8. An STI3 would be understandable, but an STI8
It is always the customer that is wrong.....

Apologies Graham, as you are probably aware we see an awful lot of cars and sometimes details escape my memory.
I was stating what I could recall and not slating the turbo due to one less than average result. If you would be good enough to PM your registration I'll look up all of the dyno graphs and re-aquaint myself with it.

Never mind, lol. Found it.
Looking at both the map and the graphs, I fail to see what I could have done to make more power from it other than wind in more ignition and or more boost.
Based on the fact that I haven't seen it back blown to pieces, when I mapped it in July 2008, I think I probably made the right decision.

Hi Martyn, as I said earlier, it wasn't a criticism, I wanted people to make an informed decission. Hence my correcting the spec to include an STI8 intercooler rather than an STI3 one. 
But as said, presumably with 20% meth? Is it a built 2.5 too?
Whatever, you must be over the moon... and the car must feel like a rocketship on the road?
The response!

Recently had my low boost map tweaked by Simon (JGM).
V Power
430 bhp / 378 lbft and made 1.5bar by 3,800 rpm .
Looking to get the High boost map tweaked again with 7% (5ltrs) Meth once the Oil Cooler is on.

Ive recently changed to the new billet version on the T.
Has anyone got results from just the turbo change to hand? I've keeping off boost at present until next week but I have noticed straight away how much just by going billet has changed the way the car feels. The noise from the dv delete sounds more chirpy too and thats at the max of 0.4 bar.
Looking at doing a V Power Map and Meth (10ltrs this time). But in all honesty I am not looking a numbers to curious to see what it feels like once mapped as I am blown away by the difference at present.

Put it this way, on my forged 2.5, the turbo is blowing 1bar at 2700rpm and full boost soon after The car developed 472/483 when it had only 1400 miles on the clock. Boost response of a Vf35 on a 460bhp turbo. Remarkable!
I'm sure the MD321T billet will be comparable....maybe even better who knows!
