Thank you for that, a good read

Though i dont belive the exhaust readings, the skunk2 is basically an invidia and they dont yeild that much looking at old posts and when i was going to buy one, plus the fact its a dual and no mention of removing the CAT

After a bit of research found out that they also fail to mention that the dash temp gauge will not work with the AEM ecu, hence the reason why Modifry sells an adaptor kit to bring it back again. Would have thought that warranted a mention!

25bhp from all that? B0ll0cks!

I have a BC Spec IV single (which will flow better than the dual)
HKS manifold
e-Manage ECU (which I have now found what was causing the poor performance )
Decat
Fujita CAI
JDM High comp engine

If I can manage to get to 205whp, i'll be ecstatic! 216whp I think is out of the question.

Been speaking with Giles and he's confident that it is due to some differing sensors.

I'm going to connect the laptop to the car, then have him RDP onto the laptop and see what is going on.

I still have faith
