Default Am I odd?

I have a Feb 2005 Cdti Classic (of sorts...) it is a 131 bhp version. I have added a TU3b.....it goes like stink...smooth, powerful and unfaltering up to well past 5000rpm . It does not have: Ron's spring, Mk 1,2 or 3 air intake mod, it does not have an egr valve blank (10 bhp or otherwise!), or a decat or Millers additive.....

Were the last Cdtis different in some way? Is mine just very quick? Am I just easily pleased? I dunno. But I would like to put mine side by side with a fully modded car to see the difference! If there is one.....

mines a 2004 ZT, mk 1 intake mod and ronbox, and mine does rev freely.
the intake mod ( and a MAF clean) before I fitted the Ronbox certainly transformed the car

At the end of the day, as long as every one is pleased with the Performance THEY are getting from their car, is all that really matters.

Don't forget Zeb, the diesels will give the V6 a good run for there money and the addition of lots more MPG.
See the Thread on 50 - 70MPH timings, quite a shock for most Petrol people, even before the Mods are done. LOL.
