Save up and get an EcuTek re-map by a reputable mapper. You'll get much better results as the PPP is a "one map fits all" ECU and must accomodate the use of various grades of fuel and have a wide safety margin built in.

I agree that ecu tek is better but it just depends on what you want to spend, when you already have the exhaust the cost of the ppp will be no more than £300 and all you have to do is just plug it in and you will get 240bhp 255lbft which is worth the money, or if you want to go the ecu tek route it will cost £600 to £700 and you will have to take the car to a tuner to do it.
I have the ppp on my classic and it is worth it but i do plan on getting it re mapped this year to get that little bit extra, i just did what i could afford at the time
