    My MTE upgrade first impressions

    i had the MTE stage one software upgrade done on my 850 T5 today by Don of Kalmar Union i only got a quick chance to let her loose as the run home was mostly wet but had a dry stretch of quiet country road near my house and yes it feels Very good indeed. good traction,smooth progressive power and very driveable

    thankyou VERY much Don, a pleasure dealing with you

    Good to see you are happy with the map. I have been deciding whether or not to go for an MTE map with my new engine and other additional modded parts. I want to run Green injectors so hopefully Don will have something should I decide to go that way.

    you are not wrong

    i had been looking at differant wheels but decieded i am going to stick with the standard wheels (for the time being) and do something with the tyres and brakes though, will try some decent pads and throw some Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3's or Toyo Proxes T1-R's on it and give them a go
