I had the pleasure of sitting on the M3 northbound this evening from junction 12-9, a pleasure which took me over an hour of my time (usually it's 5mins) anyway enough og the complaining.

When I finally got past the crash site and pulled away, there was very little forward acceleration.

This persisted all the way up the A34 and home about another 10 miles away. There was an improvement on the way home after I ragged it a bit but not the usual low down boost or rapid acceleration that I have become used to following a remap last year and the fitment of a prodrive sports cat downpipe last Friday.

WTF is happening, does anyone have any ideas please.

if you were sat in slow moving traffic for that long id definately go with the 'heat soak'

I read in one of the magazines that every 1c variation to intake temp varies power by 1bhp
All that heat from the engine would have to dissipate up through the interwarmer, until you got some air passing through the rad, to cool the engine etc etc etc

Did it drive ok the next day?
