Where to start? A bit about me. I’m 40 now, I’ve always had fast(ish) cars, fiesta 1.6sport, mr2, civic vti, z3 2.8, rx8, Impreza Wrx, and last year I owned my dream car - a golf R.
Also last year had my first experience of people trying to break in to the house to steal the car. When it happened the 2nd time in a week I thought for the sake of the family, house and my own mental health (I tell you the paranoia is awful!) that the golf had to go and I’d get a boring car that nobody would want to steal. So I traded in the golf for a..... Nissan qashqai 1.2 turbo. Lol.
The car is great (toys wise) but absolutely gutless. It’s engine is too small for the size/weight of the car. In a hilly area it’s constantly changing gear to keep it going, change too early and no turbo spinning to help propel you.
Was looking into “proper” remaps but couldn’t face the embarrassment.
Looking at these boxes- very mixed reviews on forums. However, 30 day money back promise (bought on credit card, just in case) and I fitted it yesterday.
Now the car isn’t fast, it never will be, I wasn’t expecting it to be BUT with this fitted it 10x more driveable, that’s all I wanted. For me this box works as I wanted it to, it makes the car “nippier” for sure and picks up the pace a lot quicker than before.
I’m still only on setting 4 too.
I’ll try higher settings for sure but it’s already done what I wanted it to do.
Thank you
