• Just spoke to the importer. It’s been dibsed by someone else with the £250 deposit but he’s sending me over some examples currently going through the auctions that he can import specifically for me.

    However he did explain that the 112mph speed limiter can’t be removed only moved by re-mapping, and the cruise control also only works up to 100km/h or something else pitiful and it needs to be re-mapped to make the cruise control usable.

    He started off telling me this I think to try and sell me the silver car, but then I asked what sort of power can be unlocked by doing a proper map at the same time. We discussed upping the boost for starters and changing how much boost comes in when in the rev range.

    Uh oh.

  • Not sure what the auto-box is like on those twinscrolls.
    You will need to get it remapped anyway - they don't much like uk fuel.

    Also - I would avoid cloth seats with a small child....

  • It’s a gen 3 so twin turbo not twinscroll. If I ask for an import to my spec I could ask for a manual but I’m pretty lazy these days.

    Edit: oh right. I should probably know which car I’m trying to buy. It’s a gen 4 I see now. Interesting.
