M-Tune off boost/cruising performance
Just picked up JohnTorgs car, that has a bigger turbo, freshly installed M-TUne with Rogues injectors (80#).
I took the car for an initial 600 kms spin.
A clutch problem developed very soon into the drive (Clutch MC or ??) which had me cruise for two days, more or less off boost, following "regular" traffic. (50-75 mph)
To make it short:
I'd buy Rogues kit again and again for just the improvement in off-boost/low RPM/regular driving around town performance.
Throttle response off boost is in terms of a modern car, no need to go into boost during those slow uphill drives where most stock cars will want to "die" and you have to boost.
I hardly spent any gas during that trip!
Boost performance was briefly tested before clutch problem, car felt very strong.
Rogue, put me up for another kit!

Joshua, count me in for a complete kit as well, still in Thailand, but when I return, I will be ready! Might just have to sell all of that Ausie complicated crap too and put one in the FL car, that is if it ever gets put back together, uugh don't even go there, zero progress since we talked last in Niagara Falls. Oh, by the way, just read my signature and figured out what my injectors were and the site I was supposed to send to you. It was Five-O, cool site, check it out.
