    Well holy moly. Easily the best mod I've done so far. It's safe tuned to about 152rwkw, it was 75 prior to the pump. It's sooo nice to drive now! I'll have to keep an eye on my speed as it will be possible to get tickets now!

    Mark seems to think that my tyres are sapping about 20-30kw so he said I'm welcome to re run it with some at's for free.

    That's awesome mate! There'd be a bit more in it though if you wanted?
    What tyres do you have?

    Not sure about the torque, I didn't ask & it doesn't have it on the dyno sheet. She pulls like a bus full of school boys now though.

    Yeah definitely, I just wanted to safe tune as it's more for every day driving/touring now.

    33" Federal Couragias. He said because they are an aggressive MT terrain they sap the power.

    That's strange there's no Torque on the dyno mate. Show us what print out they gave you?

    That's awsome, sounds very nice. Does it start nice and snappy? ? . . .

    I'll take a photo of the dyno sheet shortly and upload it. It starts differently now, it revs up for a split second just as it fires.

    Unlikely. You will usually see around 20-30kw drivetrain losses. They should be able to put all the info into the machine to get it as accurate as possible. They are only a 33. will normally only see 5-10 % with tyre size changes.

    Dont delve to deep into my comments. It is a good improvement with nearly double what you started with. And as you say the driveability has improved a lot. Improving driveability is what really makes these things fun to drive.
