Thanks for the vote of confidence.

Remapping is the best way to go, in my opinion. The one I have in mind will remove the limiter. RICA remap will set you back under £500 and give you an extra 80 bhp. (310bhp/420Nm torque)

My personal recommendation is that you take the car to Volvotuning in Bromsgrove. Bobbing down for a chat on a Saturday morning is a good idea.
They are good at what they do, IMHO.

We (as a club) are having a rolling road session at VT on the 7th May (see the Calendar link above). There is also a thread which you will need to sign up on in the meetings section. It is a nice way to meet the other regulars and gauge there opinions on the best path on mods. We will be the first forum/club on their brand new dyno. It will give you a decent idea of what your baseline is.
