Yes, only had a quick try so far, however I did sit in the passenger seat and let an expert show me how it works after it was mapped. Made me turn white !

SteveBT's car has the smaller 0.63 housing, AVCS heads but 50hp less than Clives, so it shouldn't come as a surprise that Clives lacks a little torque. FWIW I am pretty confident my dyno underreads at peak torque as it seems to soften the blow of a big hit of boost. For comparison SleeperSys car was 560ftlb at my place, 625ftlb at DS Autos Dyno dynamics.

Is that just the characteristics of a 2.3L build?

I thought SteveBt had more torque in his 2.5L build.

I've been full throttle shifting in the cupra to see what its all about . I'd hate to think of the loads on the transmission in a proper car.

Does make you quicker though even in that thing.

the load when flat shifting isn't too bad as the revs are cut while the clutch is down, keeping the boost up without shocking the gearbox when the clutch bites.

I'm here for proper moral support I'm that busy with work I don't have anytime to get to any meets, would love to make the pod as that way paul could set my suspension up properly! I will definately make the head to head at scooby shootout. I'm dropping my car off at Stevens at the weekend and I think either him or Paul are playing with it at York on the 31st. I even have the track tyres sorted to help on grip for launch I will be in spain practising my lunches

Comedy aside, just how many threads have you put that picture in? I looked at all my active subscribed threads, and every single last post is by you, with the pick of Daz, his come over hanging adrift, and his comedy feet!
