base map is a little rich, good for induction and exhaust

Sounds daft but you\'d have been better getting it map\'d at the same time, Mainly becouse when you put it on there is no real diffrence but when its map\'d it feels alot better (smoother and more powerfull)

I can\'t afford to get it mapped at the moment as I\'m between jobs and a bit short on the old moolah.

Once I\'m earning regularly again (next month) it\'ll be mapped by Pip.

it still removes the speed limiter and gives a load of handy information! the base map is safe enough if you dont have many mods

Lots of readings, mega handy!!

Initial impressions:

Had to start the car and leave idling for about 10 minutes to let it sort itself out with fueling etc. It\'s only running on the base map so it\'s overfueling still and I\'m just driving off boost everywhere for now. Needs a proper set up but it all seems good.

Just a side note, what sort of knock readings should I getting from just driving round town off boost?
