I've had a remap (Ecutek,)a full decat and uprated brakes for 10 days now and I'm surprised at a couple of effects, but the others were probably inevitable

1. My face hurts (too much grinning)
2. I can't believe how much more fun the car is
3. It now stops without STOMPING on the brake pedal
4. Lots more people turn round and look when you rumble past.....
5. I'm late 40s and people say "WHAT have you done?" in a disapproving way and I couldn't give a to55
6. I drive with the window open a lot more
7. I look for tunnels and make detours
8. I use much less fuel in town bcos I dont want to be too loud
9. People in pub gardens stop talking and look when you drive into the car park

The nicest thing is I feel 17 again with the car I always wanted.

Am I a sad old fart?
