VR6Pete 1,455 Posted July 13, 2014 Report Share Posted July 13, 2014 What power did it get at the RR day mate? What you hoping get after remap?Don't get sucked in with figures as it will be 10x better to drive on the road after a remap regardless of your figures Link to post Share on other sites
vdub_pete 15 Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 (edited) I'm keen to know to I've got a similar set up apart from the tt plugswhat's the advantage of them? Anyone know?Are you running obd1 or 2 mate?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Edited July 14, 2014 by vdub_pete Link to post Share on other sites
iain092 2 Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 (edited) Where did you get the spark plugs at what price? What's the advantages? I have just bought a K&N panel filter. Is it worth drilling the air box?? Thought about a remap, just concerned about not a lot of power return for the money! Advice? Has anyone ever heard about 'Terraclean'?? And if so is it worth it?

ssaunders 199 Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 Hi, i found that drilling the box increases intake noise, i bought a 2nd hand one and did it. i wouldn't remap until you have major work done cams, turbo etc.. and lastly see my post on terracleaning, i found it quite good.http://www.vr6oc.com/forum/topic/40991-anyone-terracleand-opinionsreviews-and-locations/good luck with whatever you do.s Where did you get the spark plugs at what price?

Vman 2 Posted July 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 Regarding the plugs vince told me to fit some as my vr doesn't seem to like super unleaded Soon as I told vince that he said about the plugs My power run at the rolling road day was 198 bhp but that was with standard cams and standard exhaust manifold I did notice a nice difference when I drilled out the air box so I'd say worth doing as it cost nothing to doNot sure on what to expect and not worried about numbers only interested in what happens on the road. As mine has the mods it has it needs a map for them to come to life and work together how they should Link to post Share on other sites

VR6Pete 1,455 Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 Excuse my ignorance, OBD2??? What's that??It's the on board diagnostics, earlier will be obd2 which later switched to obd2, obd2 is considered better as generally it's more responsive and technological advanced over obd1.

Vman 2 Posted July 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 Drives much nicerI need a proper induction like BMC as the k&n pannel filter and drilled air box is kind of strangling it So like this it produced 210 bhp but I was never interested in the figure I was more concerned what it did on the road tbhIt revs to 7200 now so makes more use of the cams and is also much better on fuel and a lot more responsive on the throttleBut figure wise wasn't helped due to the fact it was mapped in hot weather but can't help that Link to post Share on other sites

VR6Pete 1,455 Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 210 from an engine with light mods is pretty healthy mate. BMC's make a noticeable difference too Link to post Share on other sites
