Does anyone know wat the fastest time for a T5 is up the strip?
Had a rica re-map, new 19T (not mapped yet) 3inch downpipe, 2 3/4 cat back system, new plugs and leads, ITG panel filter, S60 rods and a few small things/

Speesh they are cracking time mate,
I was going to say when you get the remap done then it is going to be hard to get near you,Some peeps say the 16t's are better for lower speeds and the 18/19s are better fourther up the revs.
See you in April hopefully :D
