    i would just like to know what do you do with the connectors that you dont use from the pcv as only half of them are being used

    Are you saying the power commander itself has no map or the PCV programme on your laptop has no maps on it?

    Yeah at first when I looked at the program and opened up the maps I was like "How the F**k am I supposed to know what all these daft codes mean?" Then I realized if you click view and show notes it has a nice little description of each coded map :)

    Ping Martin direct at Dynojet UK if your PC is not loaded with a map. He will let you know which is the closest map to suit your set up. They will be 90% - 95% optimised to your set up, to get any more optimised you will need a custom dyno

    It's worth it purely for the extra mpg and the removal of the flat spot/ hesitation at 4k... Performance gains are negligible.

    the surge is a cheap fix, you just need to fit an O2 eliminator.
