just back from andy forrest!!!!
just back, wow!!!! what a difference! first thing andy commented on was that it was still on the origina maf sensor, car has done 54k, once the software was downloaded and car was idling andy was checking all reading and the maf wasnt performing as it should, it wasnt totally shot, but andy had concerns, but we would find out once the car was under load, once on the open road andys concerns were confirmed and we didnt drive the car hard until we popped along to penicuik and alex f nobles where i had to buy a new maf (£105!!!) andy fitted it and checked it before we set off again, now perfect, so off we went............. few runs on the bypass on the A1 runs from 3k to 5500k in 4th etc and andy was finally happy that she was mapped perfectly, so now the crunch time, time for a few runs to see what figures she was putting out, i already knew judging just how hard and fast she was pulling with the extra whooooooooooosh from the hybrid td04 which by the way was spooling as quick as ever just sooooooo much harder, that the figures should be good, and they were,
bhp - 305bhp, torque - 311 lbf :-) i am one very happy customer, andy commented on how well she drove and also what a lovely example she is, cant thank or recommend andy highly enough. im away for a drive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i was lucky and managed to get hold of a second hand low miles hybrid off a sidc member who was upgrading to td05 18g. . you could run it on standard top mount and injectors (mine are the larger 440s as mine is a my00) think the pre 99 cars have smaller injectors so would ideally need upgrading. he does take px on standard td04, check out his website www.andyforrestperformance.co.uk

lol, yes bypass was a bit busy when he was mapping mine, slowing down to 50 in the fast lane annoying some drivers before leaving them standing as andy told me to floor it in 3rd gear up to 6000rpm, all good fun. think the drivers must of thought i was playing with them.
