It seems to have a little more go lower down, may just be a placebo effect.

Been doing some reading around and seems a T4 session to reset the ECU values on mine and retrain it may be an idea. Shame I didn't know that yesterday else I could have asked BigRuss to do it for me.

Will see how it goes the next week or two.
