See, told you I'd be useful for something one day
I'd recommend a brake uprade too, the brembos on the evos seem to struggle with only standard bhp !!!
It's hard, but I got to admit: I appreciated your advice.
Brake upgrade was offered indeed. Same calipers which are said to be good (which I believe) but other discs, fluid and breaded hoses.
Should avoid overheating and as the discs are grooved, it should also avoid water build up on them (which I've issues with on several occasions with the scoob).
If the mods work well and the guy can also do me a good set of gauges to fit in the DIN slot in the dashboard, he'll be the daddy !
What I really appreciated is that his mapper seems to have experience with setting up a car for cold weather too (as he's mapped the rallycars for Rally of Sweden). Most other tuners run 3 miles away when I ask if they know how the new mapping is going to react to intake air of -40C or colder (with the wind from driving, probably colder even)
