Got my ECU back from vantuner on Saturday and wow is all I can say anyone who hasn't had it there's remapped then they are missing out. Also asked about what pipe to blank and its the one with the white line on it the other is speed sensor.

My remapped 90ps hits 115mph and then runs out of revs. That's on my private racing circuit in my garden ;)

You must have a big garden gt_addict lol I'm just happy that it accelerates so much better and it's doing better mpg at the same time.

Up to you. The benefit of not circulating dirty used gases back through your engine has got to be worth it. Open your valve and put your finger inside, the muck in there is going back into your engine so can't be good. Mine runs perfect blanked off. It's the remap that counts

So I'm confused as to what one I need, the drilled one or the solid one ?
Also is it worth drilling the air box as I'v just put a k&n in ?

Only TDCI's after a certain year require the hole to be drilled, says so earlier on in the thread thinks its 2006 onwards has the hole drilled.

Don't drill the airbox, you need the cold air feed from a focus along with the bottom half of a focus airbox. Drilling the airbox will just let hot air into the engine, exactly what you don't want.

Keep an eye out, I'm from Rochester as well :D

Either get one with no hole and if waring light comes on drill one or get one with hole. Mine is 05 plate and I have one with no hole.
