Right i shall get some ordered then.
Vibs sorry but you are not really in a position to comment, You need to have driven the car before then after the mods, wether the claimed power figures fall short of the mark or not is not really a big concern to me. The car drives a hell of a lot better and has gone from a lazy v6 to a more punchy and revvy motor, im please with that aspect alone. Kerry has driven it and noticed the difference straight away, I do admit that the fuelling seems a bit suss though but will get it on rollers and see what is going on before considering dastec etc.

I still dont know what all this negative stuff about Courtenay is, are any of you actually Courtenay customers?
This is the 3rd car they have worked on for me and everytime their customers service has been outstanding. They are extremely knowledgable and helpful & friendly. If they are expensive then i suppose you get what you pay for?
Just look at some of the cars they have built, tuned loads of cars for the police, they were turbocharging vauxhalls before vauxhall were, They are highly praised by the motoring press.
Its getting tiresome hearing them being slagged off by people who aernt even customers of them and know nothing about them.

I believe I am in a position to comment on the use of FPR and superchips. the other mods will all add up but on a N/A engine with basic mods does not warrent the use increased rail pressure. I don;t even need one on my punto with 30 extra hp

Ok thats a fair comment, but these engines are notorious for running lean, hence the FPR. As for the chip there have been several factory maps since the cars production some better then others, a lot of V6 engines have a notorious flatspot at about 3900rpm, the chip seems to have got rid of this.
I really need to get this RR`d dont i?
