..and, now it doesnt even feel quick anymore. :stirthepot:

First drive, I scared my self, this thing is quick :fool:

Few days later, new rims and tyres, doesnt spin as easily now :laughing:

Took a friend for a spin last night. He want for the grab handles and I had to ask him why. Its not that quick. :tease:

My question is, am I going to experience this each time I up the power level??

If that's the case, when are you ever happy with the power because what I have now is not enough :msm:

Luke.

Hi Luke as you know I got mine done a few days ago programme 3 on the Edit, I have found the same thing you just get used to the power but its still as it was when you first got it. I think its not a good thing to get used to the power especially in the wet look what happened to Ian, not saying he wasnt driving safe but after youve had the power for awhile I wonder does it feel any different from driving a stock, I reckon we should all drive a stock at least once a month to remind ourselves what we are really sitting on hahahah

Agree, in the wet, the power, even at my level, deserves a lot of respect.

Hi Luke,

Yesterday I let my mate (who owns a Liberty GT) have a drive of my car with the edit 10psi in, and he nearly sh*t himself. He has driven it before when it was totally stock (6mths ago) , but now reckons it feels twice as powerful.

Before he got in I said to him it probably won't feel all that much different, because I too have quickly got used to it. So on the way home I decided to program it back to stock and I could'nt believe how doughy it felt .

So put yor car back to stock and get a reality check :laughing:

Cheers Clarke

As one of my close friends (No names here) asked his tuner after his xr6 turbo had become the fastest in the country.

Do you think there is a bit more left in the tune?

NO was the answer of course.

You'll never have enough - maybe you should buy a bike aswell? the bike I currently own has a 1:1 power to weight ratio 168kg and 168hp :laughing:
