Loving it now you have changed what were without doubt the most tasteless and manky wheels I have ever seen in my entire life and I don't expect to see any worse before I die.

got my kpro today, going to have it mapped one night this week

[b16a2vtiguy]

Sorted a temporary map to use untill it get a RR'd

I found a map for a ctr but it was for the us version (the map had been dynoed for a AEM v2, dcrh and IMG) i know my brands differ but the mods are very similar so thought it was worth a try (obv checking the afr was safe with wideband)
Being a US map, it was not correct as they use wideband not narrow band, so i have converted it to narrow band (also enabling the secondary o2 sensor on closed loop)
and tested the afr which is safe. I also retained the stock euro ctr idle.

Just thought i'd post this map up, as i was struggling to find a euro ctr map with those mods, on my car it is noticably smoother and quicker so hopefully will be benificial to others too.

Details.....
vtec engagement 3900 and 5000
limiter 8800
stock idle 750
no launch control etc

If you decide to try this map yourself, keep an eye on the second o2 sensor and make sure under load it reads above 0.8v, anything above is rich (safe unless far to rich) any thing below is running too lean and should be adjusted.

Please PM if you want the map as i dont know how to put it up on here!!

Alittle more progress today, i've never liked the silver engine covers on the k20 look really cheesy IMO so i finally got round to painting it today...

All masked up and primered to ensure the whole cover is the same colour

Afew coats of matt black



Plug cover getting the same treatment

You going come along then. Has to be a £20 deposit. I'll be doing a half day as i have to work. I think it's £80 for half day and it's £150 for a full day. It's also an open pit lane so that would be good. Think it starts at 9 in the morning aswell.

I'll give you my number on a pm.

COME MAN!!!
