Dyno it again on a cold winters day and you may see 15 hp more anyway.

Did you ask for max power or a reliable daily driver tune?

I'll laugh if you next post is "Verso broke my gearbox".

Did not advised. I asked for , street driving and occasional track with RELIABILITY. Guess power and reliability is not a perfect match. As for the gearbox, lets not killed the poor thing "yet"!

So you asked for a reliable tune and that is what you have.

Track tune is NOT MAX POWER either as the engine runs MUCH hotter on the track (where the engine is on boost for long periods) than on the street, making it prone to detonation.....If anything your tune will be on the rich side to allow for track use/ prevent detonation on the track / give you reliability.

Stock power + well sorted suspension and brakes would lap faster than big hp with stock suspension & stoppers anyway.

Pigsti: I hear an STI badge on a WRX is worth 50hp......... and nitrogen in tyres another 10......

Plus blue ones alter the molecular structure of the road surface aiding Traction, red neons are the opposite, giving less traction and therfore are great for drifting.......

I'm about to test that theory soon. NO LIMIT EVENTS this coming Thursday. Need more participants. Join up guys, you know you want to track your car.

I have 2 genuine STI badges,1 from STI boot lid, 1 from no where. But those badges decide to keep cool from the scorching summer and stay in the glove boxes. They probably like to stay there for as long as I'm still driving

LOL, and if we can have four neons (diff colours) underneath will allow the car to travel at speed of sound....haha....
