Hi,

Thought I'd post a brief note regarding my recent upgrade at Mountune.

On Friday, I upgraded from the 165 to the 185 kit which includes Piper cams/valve Springs and a remap.

After spending the weekend in London, I finally got to put this upgrade to the test on my journey back to Manchester yesterday evening.

I am really impressed with the power from 4500rpm upwards. You can feel the kick even without noticing any difference in torque. I seemed to catch up with traffic much quicker (obviously depending on the type of car infront of you). However, one thing I cannot get used to is how lumpy it's at around idle. Through conversations with Mountune, they advised it's due to the performance cams. Even with nearly 10 years of driving experience, this has affected my driving ability in the lower rev range as it can stall quite easily. You need to ensure you give it some gas when pulling away etc.

Overall, I'm very pleased with this and despite the above, I would recommend this purchase to anyone especially the 165 MT owners. You won't be disappointed.

If any of you think the above issue needs checking or have any suggestions, please feel free to let me know.

Many thanks
