PTL 4 Report post Posted November 8, 2015 Just had my GT improved with a full Miltek exhaust system, k&n filter and ecu remap. Now running 213bhp thanks to the guys at Corten-Miller, Friskville. 2 Foulsmell and Keethos reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Foulsmell 120 Report post Posted November 14, 2015 I'd ignore the peak figure. The main thing is you've gained nearly 20bhp and some nice torque mid range and at the end of the range. I bet you can really feel the difference. 🏻 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now running 213bhp thanks to the guys at Corten-Miller, Friskville. Was wondering. Is the redline mods fitted pre tune or is it totally stock car? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PTL 4 Report post Posted November 15, 2015 I think it was stock vs exhaust & retune. 1 Foulsmell reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Foulsmell 120 Report post Posted November 15, 2015 I think it was stock vs exhaust & retune. What's your thoughts on how it drives now? I've got the same set up but not tuned yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PTL 4 Report post Posted November 15, 2015 Definitely worth it, especially as if you've changed the air flow without reprogramming the ecu, the car's performance may be negatively impacted if it's getting airflow that it's not expecting. Did you change the air filter too? Best to get a rolling road test done to see what it's done to the car. But well worth the smoother delivery of power. And definitely can recommend Corten-miller for service! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And definitely can recommend Corten-miller for service! Yeah got the K&N in. I think it's pretty much accepted that this combo has positive results without mapping. But like you say it's always best to map to get the best out of the mods. Sadly they are miles away from me just like Fensport and Abbey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PTL 4 Report post Posted November 15, 2015 Both of them offer a remote tuning if needed, you'd have to buy an ecutek kit however, so the drive is probably the better option plus they fine tune it to your engine and not just an off the shelf remap. 1 Foulsmell reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I picked up a 2nd hand cable a while back to map it remotely. If I was going further with mods I'd drive down but Adrian had probably done quite a few of these. There won't be much difference between cars at this level. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PTL 4 Report post Posted November 15, 2015 Not bad, they have a mock air filter system in the office which clearly shows the difference between the stock and k&n filter, even if you restrict the k&n it allows so much more air through. Has your engine lost 30bhp or is this a mx5 running 160bhp? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
