I'm not sure you were flamed Jammpic, more that it didn't always make a great deal of sense with what had been seen before. I genuinely don't care about top end power figures and I think I mentioned that on your thread at the time. It all looked good to me and if you are happy then why does anyone else's opinion matter 
Thing is I don't think it was ever that bad for banter, just unfortunatly the cheapest (and least time-consuming) answer to how do I make my 1.8/1.6/dTurbo faster and handle better is to just buy a Rallye or GTi6. That obviously does not take into account the work already put into a car and the attachment someone already has for their car. As with any public forum people will not always see eye-to-eye and it is always best to ignore 95% of the rubbish people spout (including me). Just use the 5% to your advantage and more than anything save money and enjoy your car.
The irritating thing is the amount of useful data that has been now lost. I had a load of spring rate/lengths I was dicussing with Denis that I hadn't saved anywhere. Meh. 9.5 years and 12k posts later and i'm still in a shitty 306
