i actually think David Kyles Eixge would be up there also.

Certainly felt far quicker than it was the last time i drove it.

I'm sure he'll be along to remind me of what he's had done, apart from make it louder :thumbsup

My Exige has got the Hangar 111 remap - 8bhp extra for induction & also lower cam change by 500 rpm
Bigger bore racing manifold
Larini sports cat, modified to fit manifold
2bular back box
TRD air filter / induction

How much did the rolling road cost ?
i want to do it

Two negatives make a positive but only in Scotland do two positives make a negative - 'Aye right.'

Good figures Callum and from my experience there was very little in it between mine and Dave Kyle's car in a straight line on track.

Wonder if they'll do a reflash for a supercharged car?! :scratch

Hmm, sounds similar to the the map mine is suppose to have.
The RR was £40 for the three runs and print out but that was an organised rolling road day.

That's reassuring :D :D :D :D that said mine has never seen the track :(

I'd have thought so, unless there is some big limiting factor (fuel pump, injectors ect). Contact ecotune in Glasgow, one of the best mappers in the country by a mile!
I read a post on another forum comparing different I/C's where the standard on outperformed and was on par with many aftermarket solutions, the best value mod on charged cars was to improve the shroud and the airflow to the cooler to prevent heat soak.
