Greetings
Danke Ivo!



The ECU arrived Thursday, mapping finished Friday, i drove her for the first time today, finally.

All went well, it is holding up very well, no temperature issues with the 34 row Stillen Race Series.

She made 448 whp.
Wheelspins through first and second, in third she is fishtailing but very manageable.
I guess its time for some meaty tires

The Exhaust Combo (Berk HFC, Motordyne XYZ, Tanabe Medaillon Touring) makes for a very nice note with the S/C, ocassional pops and bangs, some small flamage

I got complimented on the sound multiple times today, makes for a big smile if random people give you a thumbs up when you pass them

BUT, it is still not fast enough, i don't know, maybe it is because of the missing torque punch you get from a turbo engine or maybe i am just too much used to power, but this just does not excite me as much as i was anticipating it would.
I miss that kind of *holy crap, this is fast* sensation i get from my other cars.
Don't get me wrong, it IS fast, judging from looking at the speedo and how fast the scenery passed by, it just doesn't feel that powerful.

However, i will probably address the weak points of the Stillen Kit first and see where it goes from there.

Here is the graph:
