01-03-2017, 10:27 AM #131Final update, picking the car up tomorrow now :biggrin: It has been mapped today and is said to be driving very well, they have dropped the power slightly from the original estimate of 330bhp as they said it was driving much better lower down and the turbo is spooling at about 1800rpm so it is pulling well from low down. I will let you all know how it feels tomorrow, can't wait now :thumbup:

The reason I think it didn’t feel much different is because it is much smoother now and drives very OEM almost like an NA, all down to good mapping and a nice roller ball bearing turbo I believe, before it was quite aggressive which made it feel punchy and so the power was more noticeable.
To add to this the handling is even better now too with the solid drop links and anti-lift kit and wider wheels. Last thing to do now is get the geometry done (which is tomorrow) so it will be spot on :biggrin:

03-03-2017, 02:27 PM #138Hello all, well picked the Scooby up yesterday, just haven't had a great deal of time to drive it properly but my first thoughts are good. I was unsure at first whether there was a big increase in power but I can say when you look down at the speedo I am in dangerous licence loosing territory quicker than before!! Also the noise the turbo makes is sweeet, you can really hear it spooling up then when you come off boost or change gear on boost it chatters down the induction kit, almost like a dump valve (which I don’t have) :biggrin:

03-03-2017, 10:43 PM #140Sounds great Russell. That's the same sort of driveability that I've been aiming for with my turbo conversion, smooth delivery and not an on/off sort of thing.
