Worth it?

I should cocoa!!

These are the figures given for my D5 C70:

Original BHP 177
Tuned BHP 217
BHP (Increase) 40
BHP Increase (%) 23 %
Original Torque (Nm) 400
Tuned Torque (Nm) 450
Torque (Increase) 50
Torque Increase (%) 13 %

They meant nothing to me but the car has gone from pretty pokey to very pokey and I'm very chuffed I have to say.

I'm not sure if I can post his details but if you search for expert tuning in Chaldon, Surrey I'm sure you'll track him down.

Well worth the cash IMO.
Did those figures come from a dyno session? How’s fuel economy now?
