Awesome mate did you make good figures? Nothing as of yet but I'm thinking a mental suspension set up and then a remap with s3 inter cooler and ITG intake  :smiley:

Made 314 on the rollers, the torque figures were 324lbs, Diverter Valve was changed after as it did experience slight boost leak prior to mapping.

Have you just bought this ?
I was bidding on it on eBay , it ended last nite for £8300



No, I have owned this since April this year, I was considering on selling the car and details were given to a friend who owns a used car dealership and requested it to be published on his dealership website at a fixed price, was not aware of it being on Ebay  :surprised:, As regards to selling i was still in two minds as i was interested in purchasing the newer ED35..

^^^^ Stick with the OEM Revision G Diverter Valve, no maintenance or checking required and holds boost fine at any stage of tune.
