Had mine done a few months back at MRC. Full carbon clean and engine service, no power mods. The difference was impressive! :biggrin3:

Car collected this morning. And yes, there is a noticeable difference - I sense it pulls much stronger than before and sport mode now feels like a 'sport mode' rather than a button to make the accelerator too sensitive and the exhaust louder. Acceleration has definately improved throughout and in 6th gear it just doesnt want to stop accelerating. I'm pretty impressed!

Power is now up to 431ps from the original 374ps - a gain of 57ps. Torque is measuring 467Nm - up 43Nm from the previous 424Nm.

Changes made were:

Full Carbon Clean
De-Flap
K+N Air Filter
Stage 2 ReMap
New MAF Sensor

It wasn't cheap but it was worth it.

Mak.

Nice one Mak. Pretty good gains there. I'd say the air filter adds next to nothing power wise, the carbon clean should just take you back to factory numbers so the remap and de flap gives you 11ps, then factor in that the car is about 7 years old, that's pretty good if you ask me.
