Remap now done. Slight glitch to be sorted at weekend, then onto Dinodaze for a run.
Should be looking at around 250 bhp.

Got new brakes today, 302mm fronts / 292mm rears all vented, grooved and dimpled mintex with sport mintex pads all round, will post some pics asap.
Cheers.

Update•••
•••••••••

Been done this week

New discs / pads fitted
Calipers cleaned n painted
Ariel changed
General check over

Took it to Dinodaze for a run expecting 240-260 bhp. Only got 202.2. Came away not happy and traction control and abs errors galore. Due to the rear wheels not turning so it had an eppy.
That cleared itself but it didn't feel right, so I met up with the bloke that did the remap, he brought a T2 specialist Saab reader with him. Map is 100% right but we found vin codes missing from the gearbox so the engine system has to take the lowest denomination ( lowest power engine ) this is 170bhp and with the remap it got the 202bhp reed out. I am meeting up again and he will re input the codes so the system will recognise that it is a 210bhp engine and with the map power goes up to around 250bhp.
For the moment I can't use all the power as it thinks you've only got 170bhp Wtf is going on and it shuts down into limp mode.
Inputting the codes stops this and so you get the full wack of power. Which will be nice ;^)

Let you know how I get on.

Fingers crossed. Should now be running around 250 bhp. Feels better and no limp mode issues.
Going to shakey next weekend to try it out.

Had a couple of runs at shakey and did a 15.6 and 92 mph. Using the auto mode, since realised the sentronic manual settings make it quicker.

New brakes now fitted.
K&amp;N panel filter ( cone soon ).
Uprated plugs.

Getting asap

3&quot; performance downpipe with 100 cell sport cat, with remap to stage3 gives 270bhp.

Pics soon as.

Quick update.

Just fitted a custom stainless steel back box, the centre box is great for flow but rear box not so good so now it flows better and sounds like a jet taking off when you give it the beans. So much for stealth lol.

More soon.
