  1. I was stuck behind a wagon doing 55mph for about 50mile this morning, managed to get up to 33mpg ... normal lunaticesque driving leads to about24-25. So if you want better economy drive slowly and find your self a nice big lorry to slipstream - or buy a deisel yuk yuk yuk
  2. sure scoobys will but us off the line and have a strong advantage round the twisty bits but for the most part i'm driving on the A roads and motorways, where i'm really not that far off - maybe a second or two over 1/2 mile...190bhp with k&N + remap sounds like a good start to me for getting that back ...or maybe 'He' is just driving like a pussy, and knowing who was in the car to which i was referring, is a definate possibility. bit of research over the weekend lead me to believe custom remap lots more that 150-200quid more like 3-400 - anyone else had similar for that price ?
  3. ingham - thanks sounds like what I am after, smoother, bit quicker but not mental what bhp gain did you get with that
  4. thanks custom remap it is - any do's and don't to consider with an highish miles ?
  5. Hi all, got beaten by an Impreza last night - not by much I mght add, but annoying nonetheless. Have been thinking of getting chipped for a while for the extra horsies, and this has just encouraged me. My concern is that i have 113K miles on the clock (is 97P) and that chipping could limit life expentancy of my beloved, so my Q is should I avoid getting a perf chip with already high miles? Nothing wrong mechanically I don;t think, noisy injectors and drinks a bit of oil, but I think thats common. Another slightly unrelated Q is how much extra HP do you get with a K&N 57i induction Kit
