Haha yeah I think the last time I saw yours was at b and q island I still had my silver one then mind, a good friend of mine also has a 306 hdi in moonstone blue with a dump valve on it, ill definately be sticking around and im very interested in coming to meets etc so is the other guy

Just a quick snap before I walked into work this morning

[kentiiboii]

Wow a 5dr dturbo not many of them around, It looks nice. Mine is running on cyclones now for winter :-)

[Titch161086]

Welcome along im new as well and I find this sight and the people very helpful

[deggerz]

Yeah I was a little dubious as I didnt think they did them in 5 doors but I was obviously wrong, nearly didnt go and look at it but loved it when I did, its in superb condition inside and out, unfortunately it wont stay a low miles car as I do around 30k a year for work, I love the cyclones they look great for a standard alloy, first thing mine needs I think is a remap, it just feels like it wants to go but cant if that makes sense :/

[kentiiboii]

Yeah I had mine remap by mr whippy makes a huge difference! Mine pulled 127bhp 208ftlbs torque.

[deggerz]

Yeah I wanted whippy to do minw but ive heard hes not around all that often anymore so was looking at pro steve, stage 1 is about as far as ill go I think

[kentiiboii]

Well I have the galletto cable if you need it. Its easy enough to upload your self.

[deggerz]

Ahh you are tempting me now, 75 quid as opposed to 120 and having to drive to bristol sounds very tempting, do you know how to do it? Terrified of bricking my ecu lol

[Lego Jon]

Me too. Not sure im confident enough to not blow it up.

[mcvite]

Welcome to the forum,nice looking HDI you have brought there,enjoy

[crumpy]

I was bricking my self but I followed the guide of pro steves website, it took 5 minutes was so easy!

I tried using my new laptop with windows 8 but wasnt working. So I tried my old one running windows 7 pretty slow laptop needed rebooting desperately. But it did it without any problems.

When I did my old hdi I went to whippy in leeds, the mans a genius at this stuff. Charged me £150. Got my second hdi turned out it had the same ecu so I uploaded my old map saved me money :-)

[deggerz]

Haha happy days, windows 8 is a bit of a funny animal anyway, bit of a bonus not having to pay for another map oh kentiiboii, shadyc-hdi is the other guy with the 306 I mentioned , ill get back to you on the galetto though only a week till payday and its very tempting

[Lego Jon]

Thats fair enough but im an idiot. I'd brick it.

Yeah I gathered he was the other guy :-) im smarter than I look :-p. I highly recommend getting it remapped its like a different car after. Really makes it come alive! :-)

As long as you're using a decent laptop thats fully charged and plugged into the mains. Itll be easy! I really was suprised at how easy it was. :-)

[deggerz]
