I try but nobody believes me. Don't smoke, hardly ever drink to much etc.etc. sheep and wolf come to mind.
Ive found stage 2 to be "adequate" to put the frightners on pretty much anything on the road with 4 wheels, supposed supercars included! Everyday fast cars like Audi TTs, Leon Cupras and BM 330s,etc are easy pickings. You'll find its the top end when it really comes alive, it just takes performance to the next level and keeps pulling with even greater ferocity to the rev limiter!:B_steerin

(on that stretch of private runway!):cop: It is a different feeling to the 18 but I'm havin great fun gettin used to it:sinner: The car just doesnt stop pullin like a train in every gear! Mac
Sounds good My V70 is at Vt as we speak having a 19T and custom map, I cant wait but I will have too!
Mine is a right beast, and thats with the transfer box and 4 wheel drive, so I would imagine the 2 wheel drives really fly!:B_steerin You WILL like it:sinner:
