well car is great, 55k 4 new pirrellis all round, excellent alloys, averaged 61.4 mpg comeing back from barnsley to york at ahem...70.
to confirm a few things, what rpm should the turbo kick in? and what rpm do you feel the turbo let off a bit. i think it feels like it kicks in at 1650 and goes a bit limper at 2500ish? will have to doulble check that 1.
any thoughts on these cars?

peak torque around 1750(w/o overboost)-2000rpm (w. overboost)
you will have over 80% torque until 3500rpm

sounds right.
every turbo car behave like this, you feel acceleration once the turbo kicks in and nothing after that.

is it worth a remap? or will the other componants fail if more power is acheived? only looking to make her a little more responsive, not big power.

Remap it, have the FAP removed and when your clutch/flywheel goes change it to single mass
that the only down fall to them
with the above mods you should see 130bhp

Remember with FAP, doing short journeys will lead to big repair bills.
Check the level of the eloys fluid.
Also always brim it when refueling

yes, the filter need to reach certain temp to carry out regeneration, do not rev. the engine during regeneration; 50mph@5th gear is more than enough.
think you need proper dia. tools to do that.
yes, full tank every time. because the system automatically inject the fix amount of eloys fluid whenever you put fuel in

how do you now when it is regenerating? and if you do a few 50mph journeys it will stay clean? how long should you do this speed for(how many miles?) and how often?
