matty1 Posted May 13, 2013 Author Share Posted May 13, 2013 also, went back for a retune today, heres the resultsthe green is the first one i did a few weeks back with the old exhaust. the red is todays one, so overall a 6bhp increase. i was expecting more but im happy. the guy who did the tune said it is very good for a stock b18c4 motor, good torque and a good steady line on the bhp.

KiNK43 Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 pretty good result mate. he may have a stingey dyno anyway. you could go on a different dyno tomorow and bang out a completely different figure.anyway as said before its all about how it drives. do you know if you still have iabs active? or he mapped it out?

Had a few ep3 type r on the way to japfest and love leaving audi's behind, they get so annoying sitting on your bumper. As for the Ian's, I'm pretty sure there mapped out, got a p06 ecu so it's just running single stage VTEC. I love it anyway, runs amazing and no burning oil.

Power for your money, but of I do find any second skunk 2 cams or valve train I may go with that.But for now, next mods are lightened flywheel, stage 2 clutch, strut braces and I need to do the cambelt too so that's first. I've done a lot to it so far this year, I just wanna tidy it up, get it looking nice, refurb the wheels and sort out the handling a bit, save up some money and see which route to go for!
