Hello there, may I wish you a very warm welcome to TorqueCars, nice to have you with us.

How deep are your pockets and do you still want the car to be a reliable daily run around?

I hope you enjoy the forums as much as we all do, it's good to get as many different perspectives on tuning and cars in general.

Mapping the ECU will give you an increase in power and should remove the limiter
