The car was mapped on the RR at emerald at a cost of £300 ish


Any guesses why it seems to die off at the top?


On the road it seems to pull straight into the limiter without any drop in power :|

Shug could you bring your laptop along tomorrow for a quick look at the mapping?

Exhaust, fuelling or ignition timing is my guess ;-)

You need to check out the AFR on a power run to see what's probably going wrong.

Old age doth not come alone, Dave :-(

But my goodness was I enjoying my 147 TutPowers in the Borders today! Until I got buzzed by a black XJR (I think it was), blowers on full tilt etc...good job that thing had brakes for the end of the "straight" is all I can say :-)
