    Was thinking of doing a similar pic with our two bikes and cars.
    Need to wait until the skip is moved from the driveway though.
    The black cars and bikes family.

    Be careful leaving the SLK's roof open next to that skip, Dave, it's asking for trouble...

    It really has impressed me so far. Very quick but still giving 55-60mpg so cant complain about that, just need to decide if I am going to tune it or leave it stock

    Remap the VRS at Jabbasport in Peterboro fez ;)

    You could also fit a map switch to swap between standard (when she drives) and full power for the real men :D

    i have been looking at going to shark performance as i have heard very good things about them, is a map switch easy and cheap enough to fit, i assume it works just like it would on a pc5

    I dont think it is as much a "map switch" but more of a control unit that lets you set it up for either map.

    Good question Fez, Colin may be right as I know the kit is around 100quid which would seem expensive for a simple switch.

    I will ask my dad in the morning but it may indeed be a adjustable boost controller that flicks between maps

    I know the 1.9 pd lump is very capable of having a few extra bhp squeezed out of it but what about the rest of the car. Will the standard turbo, clutch, flywheel ect cope with a remap to around 165 bhp and 260 torque
