Good evening All
I had my Fez remapped at AMD Essex a couple of weeks ago, before the remap it was giving 132BHP, after rolling road, remap it is now giving 148BHP.
Heres a couple of pics of the read:

Sounds fast mate! Any idea on the 0-60?

Alex - I would like to think 0-60 is about 2 seconds but that would be wishful thinking
On a serious note.......I haven't got a clue, maybe I should have asked AMD when I had the remap done but sadly I never. I might drop them an email today to ask the question, watch this space.
Thank you

nice results
mines RR'd @ AMD to 132bhp at the flywheel both standard and with the induction kit now on the car - power comes in much earlier and harder now though. remap at some point for mine me thinks

Kev - I dont understand the results at all Lol, all I know is AMD have said my car is now 148BHP. Any way I've got Performance Ford coming down to see me on Friday to do a photoshoot.

RR graph looks good. Even power the whole way through.

Jam RS - I fucked up, guess what I did?
I used that STP fuel injector cleaner in a full tank of petrol a week ago, my engine malfunction light came on yesterday, it appears the cleaner stuff has ruined my oxygen lambda sensor aaaaaaargh! A new NGK sensor cost £85 plus £15 labour. I have to admit the car did seem to drive a little funny half way into the week of using the fuel cleaner stuff.
If you get fellow mk7 drivers talk about using this stuff tell them not to.
I need to put another full tank of fuel in the car and hope that cleaner additive is washed out, change the sensor and fingers crossed the car should get back to normal.
I have to say after the remap, the car does fly especially on high gears, especially motor way driving.

Really like everything you've done here mate. The interior is spot on, and getting to 148bhp is impressive!
