    well tbh mate it felt not quicker than standard for the first 50 miles or so, but i hadnt driven it for 3 months lol, but the mid range pull greatly improved almost straight away..........after a couple k it felt even better, but it was still runnin std map then............was after re-map it really felt to liven up lol...
