Hi guys ! Off to see Bill for a badger5 stage 1 custom and also getting the complete b5 induction kit ! Finally ! Lol... Still a bit new to all this but seems like a great forum ! Read loads of interesting stuff ! I will post a few pics of the day later on and of the baby of course ! :)
 
Your car will be in the best hands! Don't forget to post up your results, good luck!
 
Good luck-try and give us a little on going update on how it's going there :)

His place is like an Aladdin's cave :happy:

Welcome to the site as well - you haven't messed about have ya fella! lol
 
Good luck mate, looking forward to the results :)
 
I remember the feeling when I was heading up there for stage 1 :D it's a night and day difference, you'll love it

Mine couldn't be properly mapped on my first outing to B5s as my car was so unhealthy :(

Mark (I think it was) did some great customisation to delete my SAI though on the spot and they also found out I had a bolt missing from my DP to turbo! lol.

On the second visit though I was so happy upon leaving the place and thoroughly enjoyed every moment of my 200+ mile journey home after my stage 1 map was put on
 
Thanks for your messages lads, for a litle live update, it failed the smoke test as you can see on that pic but nothing major just a lil leak but has been fixed now, the b5 induction kit is now fitted ! And can now start the mapping ! ImageUploadedByTapatalk1398423358826539ImageUploadedByTapatalk1398423370117410ImageUploadedByTapatalk1398423378063112

I was so paranoid about mine being unhealthy when i got there i had it smoke tested and scanned 3 times in the 2 months before i went up there. Was a horrible drive up there as well, in the middle of one of the heaviest storms we had in January, but just as i got past Bristol it all cleared up. nice, sunny and dry for the drive home.

You're going to love it :D
 
Right so my n75 was ****ed and my car was only producing 142bhp on the dyno ! Wow ! Feeling a bit silly for not noticing... Lmao.. Oh well its gonna add an even bigger impact for when the map is done hey ! Like over 100bhp extra coming out of badger 5 ! ImageUploadedByTapatalk1398429356379524

hahahaha

that's excellent, rather than the normal 30-40bhp gain on a st1 map you'll most likely be going home with another 100bhp :p

that's value for money that is :laugh:

How long have you had the car fella?

There must be a lot of car owners out there who must have thought they had up an S3 if you were running 142bh and had a little play with them! lol

That will be an enjoyable drive home I bet :racer:

Loving the Live-O updates as well :icon_thumright:
 
Well my car was sat for a year as i was on a driving ban, so the n75 might have died then... Didnt drive a car for 13.5 month so still felt quick after all that time without driving i supose lol... And only got my license back 10 days ago so didnt really have the time to have a lil play against other s3's lol ;) . So yea the drive home should feel amazing ! Lmao

Right ! Map has been done with a great final result of 246bhp's ! But apparently couldv been a lil better if i wasnt driving on petrol 95 ! At least now i know ! Lol... Even tho i did ask bill and mark stupid questions about everything all day they always kept there calm and gave me answers ! I actually had a nice day down there, was nice to meet everyone ! Now the big question, how did the drive home feel ?! Even tho i was stuck in traffic for 3 hours in the fog and rain i still had a massive smile on my face ! Ha ! I really recommend badger 5 ! Good atmosphere ! So yes i am really happy with bill and mark's job ;) oh and truffy put the platics back in place aswell lol ;) here are a few pics of the dyno !
