Plates look much cleaner now. Plate bracket delete FTW.

To avoid any possible issues with the cops, cut the heads off of some popped rivets and glue them over the holes of the plates, so it looks from far as if the plates are riveted to the car.

What he said! Cops are so ridiculous these days, they want that ugly bracket and for the number plate to be bolted or pop riveted on...

I managed to finally bought a INPA Cable form a fanatic and he had a Samsung K zoom up for sales as well so i grabbed both since my A5 doesn't support OTG.

Luckily I own a C-Teck batter charger so I have all the requirements to load a MHD software ,Downloaded MHD on the phone,bought the flasher module and stage 1 file.

Excellent mods so far Sir.

How do you find the MHD maps? How is the fuel consumption with normal driving?

The Mhd files are smooth and consistent for the money its probably the best bang for buck not sure what power its making now but would like to get it dyno'd

I cant really comment on the fuel consumption as I don't driver the car during the week only weekends my wife drives it daily she is averaging on +-14 km/l .

When i drive it goes to 18-19 km/L :thumbdo:

Sorry my mistake I meant L/per 100 km

Yeah thats what I meant too lol

My average is 14-15L/100km, and I almost permanently hammer it. Im looking at other software options and was thinking of going MHD.

Nice mods so far and car is looking great.

The MHD map is great although I would suggest setting it to linear throttle response. I didn't do that when I tried the stage 2 map a few months back and it made the car great for putting foot on the highway or pulling off like a rocket but for everyday driving I can't think of anything worse. it applies like 85% throttle at 30% pedal movement. Made the car very erratic.

Otherwise it makes some proper power there is no denying that! I only used the map for 2 days and then loaded back to stock as my o2 sensor was messing with my AFR's so I would rather have a 100% mechanically sound car before pushing up boost.

Nice work bud! Sounds like your car is hauling ass!

Whats the exhaust sound like? I'm keen to do something similar but I'm scared it will be too droney.
