Excellent update Dan. Have you dyno'd it yet on the new set-up?

Thank you John  :wink:

So, yes I did take it to R-tech for a dyno and logging session recently, as the car didnt quite feel as quick as it 'should' be.

Here is the graph:


Its pretty quick, but should be making 450hp with the Stage 3+ kit I have.

Strangely enough though, the APR map has switchable programs via the cruise control stalk, and I went to 'change' the map the other day to ensure it was on the '98 RON' map, and it indicated it wasn't for some reason! But there was no way of telling what map it was on. So perhaps it was only running on the 95RON map which I also have. (Wouldnt of been on the 104RON map as it would of been pulling back lots of timing).
There doesn't seem to be much difference though on a quick drive after 'changing' the map program.

There is a whole new map due in a free weeks too with new features like the motorsport limiter and new boost control, so that should be interesting to try. Will do a before and after dyno hopefully.

Hurdy:
Mighty torque that has.  :happy2:

DanGB:
Brake update time.

Ive had the AP Racing kit for nearly 7 years now, and they served me well.
It was the mk5 specific kit they do including 6 pot calipers, and 330x28mm rotors and bells. Extremely light weight.

Ive found though, especially recently they seem to be getting to hot, thus decreasing the life of the discs and pads.

So I'd thought I try something new:
I bought some second hand TTRS calipers from Ebay for £300, and also the TTRS fully floating 'upgrade' kit from Alex Kerr (made by Vagbremtechnic).
This includes:
-362x32mm Rotors.
-Custom bells
-Custom brackets
-HEL Braided lines

Also Picked up some Pagid Blue RS4-2 pads to go with this:



And here they are on the car after I fitted them:





I still needed my existing 10mm Spacers to clear the calipers though  :happy2:
