I agree with you, after having mine remapped it made a world of difference especially with auto box and getting it done on dyno.

The issue is is not to be to wrapped in the figures it's how you want your car to perform and what you are using it for. It's the same when changing exhaust and air filter for the ecu map to match so you get the best from upgrades working together.
I have noticed in sport mode with auto (4.67) you are changing down a lot earlier than you might want to so its gaining in accelerating but losing out in braking. Which would be fine in tight track/road but keep in normal mode for longer less twisty track.
It will be interesting to see how performs on the first two sprints at Blyton.

Sam it's not that bad and Fensport fitted it and I did check with them about whine. Have a chat and drive out when I see you at TD day and see what you think.

On auto has put revs up by about 400/ 500rpm and fuel consumption dropped by 3mpg only on long run. Worth noting though you do get small whine noise being helical gear but not as loud as straight cut but it's not to intrusive.

Hi Mike I have 4.67 fitted on my auto and makes the car a lot more drivable

On my GT I run Yokohama 105 225 on 17 x 8 and really like them. I had conti 5's on BMW and they were good road tyre but prefer yoko's. Out of intrest on my new Beemer it came with Bridgestone Potenza S001 and not as good in cold weather as either yoko's or Conti 5's (225 x17).
