JC > From what I understood, the guy who tweaked the chip really played
within the map. That's why I'm asking so many questions. If he just swapped
existing, tested, maps, its less of a concern since there's less risk he got
passed the capabilities of the engine/turbos. I'll definitly call him to
know exactly what he did.

Taka> BPVs are upgraded but the turbos are still the original K03. That's
the reason why I'm a bit concerned with the 337hp output. AFAIK, it's kind
of high for the K03 so everything else must also be on the edge. And an
engine doesn't run long when everything is on the edge. Leakdown is
definitly planned before I buy the car.

However, if I buy it, it seems reprogramming it back to something more
reasonnable (around 300) is the best route.
