The engine check light flashes a few times if you switch to the "Race" map and stays on constantly for a few seconds if you switch to the "normal" map.

You could always install a fancy switch just to turn to the correct number when you do the fog/pedal change to help you remember?

A lot of extra money just for a switch otherwise

Pretty much the conclusion I have come to. The larger range of maps and snazzy dial to helpremind me which map map im Iin are a couple of benefits that I could do with

But then what happens when I forget to flick the switch? Much more trouble than its worth sometimes. I could just leave it with one map then ill never forget. It will always be in feking fast map

A very happy man has been driving his car with a fresh engine this weekend. This difference in feeling the driveability of this thing now is unreal.

Enginetuner......Top marks in my books. An excellent and pleasurable experience right from the 1st PM up until now

500 miles down now. Ready for an oil change already
