Had a tune and its running lean ????
Im assuming u had a power run / checkover and its running lean, not a 'tune' ?
Otherwise PS have tuned it lean in the midrange?!?!?!
Or am i missing something?

I know its a pain to travell but in the long run its better to get it sorted by someone that knows what he`s doing. IMO

The rr in newport is in Westec Performance, they should be able to monitor your exhaust gas and tell you if it's running lean or not, even though i don't think they're scoob specialists, they specalize in audi, vw, seat etc.
