Octygone,

Can you tell me how much power increase you have had with this Dragon box and how many miles your motor has done?

Looks like you can get this box for around

If I had the choice between a tuning box, and a switchable remap for similar money, I'd have the remap.

What about you Octygone? Walkie?

The ONLY benefit of the Dragon imo, is the fact that you can sell it on when you are fed up with it!

Who could do a remap for me then? Any suggestions?

When you say 'fed up' you mean because it's not that great or something else?

Looks like you can get this box for around £265, is it worth it?

Any comments would be appreciated.[/quote']

The Dragon box is good and you can pick them up from people on here for around £200.....but the best thing is to keep an eye out on here for a group buy ...last one a couple of weeks ago was an AMD one click remap for £300 much better than the dragon box for that price

Is that Dragon Box of yours a special edition model Octygone? It seems to be as good as a remap from what you say!

Ummm - and it gets you pretty close to the power output of a remap for a fraction of the cost Plus you don't have to mess about with your ECU and potentially do a lot of costly damage if the flashing goes wrong

A Dragon digital tuning box will do this

clicky here

Really high tech........a stop watch

Using a watch whilst watching speedo? Could be a second ether side...

The best way with equipment that

Mil. You dont have an army of scary children to chase us down if we say something wrong.

Very funny :grumpy:

How do you show when you start your run on the video :confused:

Point the video at the speedo The video will record it's own index, so assuming this is accurate (big assumption!), you can pull off the time taken for the needle to move from 0 to 60 mph.

Chris

ouch.......added

:eek: Wow! That seems a lot. Has anybody else found that theirs has increased that much?

All the Best

Chris

I said ouch and put it on.........but had a think and went and checked... :D :D

The video is here it's about 900KB ...my co pilot gets all exited and waves the cam about ....but I am not doing it again .......It's on a private wet road and when the cam stops I think nearly 80 is showing....this is with two adults in the car and half a tank of fuel ......see what you make of it

this is with two adults in the car

So its not lorna holding the camera then :P

I must say I was a sceptic but having loaded the file into windows movie maker I'd say 7.5 is accurate.

It would be easier on a dry road and I did it in windows movie maker so that should be accurate........trouble is she can't sit behind me and point the cam over my shoulder because the seat is so far away she can't reach.......

I reckoned on 8 secs or below...so I'm quite happy with it ...surprises a few people

Bloody hell that's impressive. Can you get one of these Dragon One Click thingys for the 2.0Tdi engine. I'd be very interested.

When did you buy the Veyron then

Hope you have video evidence to back that up Actually - I've seen it - that WRX must have been slightly fettled with
