    How you find pipercross airbox? Thinking of getting one want first mod

    Cheers
    Thanks fella. The Piper cross filter collapsed, got clogged up and starved the engine of air. K&n are suppose to be ok, but to be fair any improvement is marginal even with my engine mods, may have eased a flat spot but long term no point.

        A remap transforms it. Should leave the factory like that [emoji237]

          • Well Frank is a legend, 5 hours to do a clutch, full service and oil seal. Car is driving fantastic. Turns out my DMF was broken inside causing the clutch to move, the clutch plate still had meat on it.

                  Very good cost me 1k just for clutch and flywheel which to be fair came from Vauxhall. Bet your well chuffed.

                      The only downside to having a remap is if you have your car serviced at Vauxhall dealerships and they update the ECU software, this will wipe the map

                      • How does the standard clutch handle the power? I’m tempted by a hybrid if I can find one

                          To be fair it seems ok, saying that if your drive it like you stole it then probably badly.

                          Frank did not think my DMF was due to the increased power, my remap boosts my turbo higher up the rev range purposely so that there is less strain on the clutch components as I said above I had loads of clutch plate left. My car was a ex rental car with 16k on it which could have contributed
