I don't Believe it has been badly
Mapped at all, I am extremely
Pleased with how it is driving, the turbo kicks in stronger now, and pulls cleaner right round, instead of dropping slightly as it did before, I just really notice that the power is all above 4,000 rpm, it still starts to spool around 3,000 but as ever it motors at 4,000, I just notice this more now as when it does kick in it seems a lot stronger. Happy days :-)

You sound really happy with your car, however, you mentioned early in the thread that you would be looking at a cam belt change, was this done?

I'm a little nervous for you, if the hoses had perished because the car had stood for so long, it's worth noting that the cam belt is made up from a lot of rubber too.

Cam belt would have been one of the first jobs on my list
