Shit maps control the final number but they are written to match pretty closely
Car ran really well today. Not as much of i power difference as i thought there would be but definitely noticeable. It seems to be more mid range power. Economy is the same 7.7 L/100km on my work trip. All in all i think it was a worthwhile mod to do. More power and the same fuel economy which is a great result.

Yeah it shifts at 6500rpm which is the redline on my cluster, doesn't matter what mode your in. It really pisses me off some days. The kickdown takes about 2 secs before it actually works. I always wondered why people called autos slush boxes. Now i know.
