Had my trip to Litchfield the other week. Rocked up with c.1500 miles on the clock. This was the requirement:
- Oil & Filter Change
- Install Powerflex Positive Shifter Bushing
- Install Litchfield Eibach springs and have their fast road setup
- Have the ECUtek remap + purchase cable
I now have 3 maps that can be changed while driving: Map 1: Eco, Map 2: Performance, Map 3: Performance with launch control.
The car now feels great. The power delivery feels much better on the performance map, the torque dip is much less noticeable and it actually sounds more aggressive too. The economy map also returns better MPG too for those that worry about these things. That was proven on a very snowy return cross-country journey from Tewkesbury . The springs have made a subtle yet noticeable change with the 30mm-ish drop and the ride is actually just as comfortable as stock. The fast road set-up also feels nice to drive, the front end feels more pointed as a result. Not had a chance to feel it with the back end out.
My new purchase, useful for logging and map updates etc:
Here's the car all nice and clean and showing the new ride height.
These is what I now have in mind for my trackday wheels too:
