Good but not quick as I'm still waiting for the power upgrade for the SC. mind you I haven't got as much money as some of you so might have to wait anyway.

Misery,

I'm pretty sure that the S/C upgrade is now available. The problem wasn't getting more power out of the engine, it was getting the engine management to allow you to use it
There are a pair of torque limiters, one on the engine and another on the gearbox and both have to be in accordance with each other or the torque is cut. Therefore both have to be modified to allow the extra power to be taken advantage of.
Give them a call.

Paul

Paul,

Can you ask JE to post if they can do the SC upgrade.

Gearbox torque limiter is not affected by the engine map changes and does not need to be altered for a 'simple' engine map modification of around 30-40bhp

Engine torque limiter does have to be raised but only by about 5% Chips with everything

TC,

Don't take this as gospel, but my undertsanding is that both engine and gearbox have to "agree" with each other or the torque will be limited.
Also, it depends on how much torque the engine is producing as standard as to how much extra you can add without having to change the torque limiter settings. Clearly some cars produce more than others.
If you want more precise details, I'm afraid you will need to talk to Jonathan.

Paul

Paul,

Thanks for that  Chips with everything

Having spoken to Jonathan after picking my car up from him (post holliday) he estimates the launch of the S/C upgrade to be around October - I'm sure details will be posted asap re any announcement on here in due course.

Er... actually the upgrade is available now! Check out JE's new website

Didn't know where to put this so this will do

No - I could really do with a TDV8 transplant

Still waiting for news on the CATS to add to my exhaust system & also fit an ITG filter.
