    Second cat delete

    Nope, only smell I have is from oil seaping occasionally. I prefer how it drives without it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Supercharger stopped working?

    Dashcommand seems to be measuring change angle so might be the delta against something i guess. Just realised I have fully hijacked this thread- sorry Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Bugger, my car drives ok (I think!) so guess it is measuring something differently. Not sure what FR means Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Logged on my N/A car for you, to the right you can see max, min and average values for each VVTI sensor Hope this helps in some way, if you are near Stockport I will gladly run this on your car for you, as well as full diagnostics. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The obd2 device died after a couple of days due to a broken connection point. In now working on MK2 using an old andoird phone. Still trying to work out mounting. Used a cool bit of software to automate unlocking the phone and booting Dashcommand up when the car starts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Torque App

    Have it working fine on Android with Dashcommand, just working out mounting options. Used another bit of software to auto unlock the phone and boot dashcommand when the car starts (and the opposite when the car is turned off) Makes good use of an old phone Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Fensport Ecutek Remap

    I use Shell out of preference, however I often go past a Tesco so sometimes substitute with their 99RON stuff. Worst case is my nearest station, BP with 98 RON Ultimate. Used 95 RON only once when I was in the middle of nowhere with no fuel and no options. It ran, but lumpy and a bit flat Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Fensport Ecutek Remap

    I would really not recommend running on standard fuel even on the standard car. It tends to run lumpy Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Squeaky brakes

    I can only take about road performance but they stop well but have a more gradual bite than OEM which I initially thought was reduced stopping power-it isn't. It actually allows you to have more control in applying partial brake, less binary. It is a desirable trait. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Exhaust confusion

    Hi, as epic as that sounds I am sadly going to pass. It is just too noisy for my daily motorway commute. Sorry mate Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Parking sensor - comments please

    How about asking them to fit a bumper without sensors and a full refund for the cost of rear parking sensors as they are not fit for purpose? If the rest of the car is ok it could be a compromise to suggest? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Exhaust confusion

    That is a sexy looking exhaust, would it be batshit loud on a standard manifold and decay non-res front pipe? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
