Not sure why you are questioning me, ive had a few fast cars now, certainly a lot faster than the golf... If i was going to talk shit about bhp id talk it about other cars

I'm not saying you were talking shit, I'm saying a lot of rolling roads arent accurate, especially when quoting fly power, fly power is basically just a guess based on an predicted drag curve

Which is why I never bothered with rr. No matter what you say, your car is even with a printout people will say it's wrong.
So what's point of doing it in the first place

Wheel figures arent too bad.
Fly figures might aswell pluck a number out the air

I've gained 32bhp after my remap. Noticing a hell of a difference. Before in 6th I could have my foot down and wait ages for power, now its just there without waiting.

It was a lovely day earlier. Fell asleep on the sofa then woke up to it absolutely hammering down.
Rushed outside and sat in a big puddle in my driver's seat while I desperately tried to get the roof up
Drenched.

Corr look, some real work being posted on CS, i know its hard to digest.
[QUOTE=Jim Bowen;1082834]Got the engine in yesterday, was quite chuffed as a mate was going to come and help but he had to watch some game where a load of men kick a ball around some grass??? So i thought i'd do it on my own.
Painted the rear end during the week, not lacquered it yet though, not too bad for a rattle car.
Drained gearbox oil
Filled with MT90
New clutch fork and other parts that were easily replaced.
New copper guide bush for the starter motor
New clutch fitted
Gearbox on and ready to fit
The mission, should you choose to accept it
And its finally in, after over a year without an engine

3CorsaMeal, I hope you're going to get an agreed value insurance policy on that when you're done. Because your bloody will boil when someone hits you up the arse, the insurance company writes it off and offers you £500 for your troubles.
