    not true mine has loads of midrange pull with a rica stage 2 on s60t5. I have had a hlm map too but it felt lame compared to rica .also if you don't like the map rica will try and change it for you am on a stage 2 test 1 at the moment and its nice loads of midrange.

    Yeah but your running a different set up to me. Mine is k24 not 16t. it was a autotech map. One of the best around. Ive got graphs for rica and autotech but my bum dyno is the best and rica dispoints me.

    mine was a autotech map too but the car seem to lack the torque I had with the rica . I think you had a problem with the rica softloader not working as it should have mine has been fine think you where unlucky. am sure you will find theres lots of p2s out there running very well on rica just like me .

    Wow, that's had a fare tap to the rad pack, condenser is shot as is the intercooler, no wonder your on the look out for a new one

    Exhaust looks nice, how does it sound?
