Drove a remapped D5 this evening...

[S1mon]

...f¥€k my old boots!!!

A friend has just picked up a 2002 S60 D5 with 187,000 miles on it for £1100! It's by no means mint but still a bargain I think!! Anyway, he's never been in mine (a standard '04 S60 D5) or any other D5 but suspected it was faster than it should be so asked to meet up to do a little comparison. Straight away it was obvious the exhaust wasn't standard and hearing it driving it sounded (can't believe I'm going to say this about a derv) AMAZING!!

Anyway, he asked me to drive his, before taking him out in mine. I pulled out the car park gently, changed to 2nd and applied about 3/4 throttle! My reaction was priceless!! It took off like a scalded cat, the difference between mine and his was night and day!!! His clutch was slipping badly in 3rd so couldn't really go much further on hard throttle but there's no doubt about it...it's an animal!!

I'm guessing at it being a RICA Sport Tune map on there and although I really shouldn't, I'm very tempted to get mine done at some point!!

Opinions!?
