How's the power feeling compared to the Trophy? I had a 172 Clio smoke me at the weekend wasn't impressed! Still mine isn't remapped yet so it's to be expected...

Each to their own, I think it makes less of a difference on a darker car. Personally I think it would finish it off very nicely.

Which remap did you get?

meguiars from start to finish.

wash - clay kit - polish - liquid wax.

bit of a ball ache getting the products to buff up when you have a cold LoL. going to get a polisher. tough stuff to get off the wax

pulls for fun in any gear from 2000revs. made the gear changing smoother. had the remap done by a friend of a friend. ;). hard to get the power down in the wet though. wheels spin up in 3rd, especially on hills

Looks good.

What tyres are you running? When I changed from Avons to Rainsports I got rid of traction issues in the wet. 3rd gear spinning sounds like you need to change the tyres TBH.

got the tyres cheap. they are nankang's. will change the tires when i have run these, as they were only to get me rolling.


the lights are off ebay, made by DEPO so are good quality. the bulbs to make the angel eyes white are off ultraleds.co.uk. and i cut the bottom section of lights out just to give me the rings around the projectors

Nankang's are one of the better budget makes, if you're after a better tyre for not too much more go for Toyos. They're one of the best mods you can make!
