I know how breakfast runs go...if you not tuned, you may sit with a smoking model on the way there or back...it ruins your day :)

It's done, the car is tuned and how can I expect everything to go well, got the car back, started driving and at around 40km/h the car started hopping around as if the wheel is coming off, checked it out and all looked well, decided to go to a tyre shop for them to put the car on a lift and check.

Surprize:

So now I'm crippled, in Kempton and 40km/s away from home, luckely Mr Louis Kouf could hook me up, bill for the tune and 2 new back tyres: R4500 :evil: all the extra money I had down the drain.

The car did well I suppose, not impressed, feel that the turbo wants to boost more to make power, feels like it's not getting enough flow to reach it's potencial, boost comes in smooth, not as agressive as when I boost more.
Boost: 1.5 bar
Result: wheel kw: 250
Torque. : 389 nm

Thanks Mike, but I'm not as impressed.

Will do Gary, the tuner pulled back the timing plenty from where it was.

I had a look at Derek's map and there is no way that map could be smooth...

Derek can post screenshots of his map if he wants. It was a typical dyno tjooner shit job, car on and off the rollers as quick as possible.
