Title: Best place to buy runner flap deletes?
Post by: DomBacon on August 21, 2016, 09:16:39 pm

Where's the best place to buy runner flap deletes from?
I've seen some for £50 and go right up to £240!

Is there any difference in them?

Anyone used creation Motorsport ones? There like £50 on there eBay shop.

I thought you lose a lot of lower down torque with this mod??

Runner flaps are only active at idle and the lightest of loads below 4 or 5k rpm - I. E. Cruising. You don't lose any torque whilst accelerating as the flaps would be fully open anyway.

From what I know there is no EA888 based RFD at the minute.
