so,
after searching, and asking people, the dad etc. i've ran out of ideas, so its time to go to the guru's
its a 99 curvy
im restricted, thats a big part
used to be able to comfortably cruise at 85/90, (wrongly)and even did 105 on an empty a3 on easter morning! but these were impatient days and newfound powerrrr
i generally dont go that quick now, but recently when i do, i've struggled to exceed 80, where i used to be able to cruise at higher speeds i now have to drop down gears and pin it, yet it still takes a long time to crawl up, and im not gonna thrash it, i just want to know why it suddenly takes so much more effort to do what used to seem so much easier. (the restrictors have not been removed in all this time)
i changed my exhaust, thought that might be a factor, but testing both with no difference ruled that out,
so im wondering if for some reason the restrictors have become more effective somehow?...the weather?....not so frequent high speed road jaunts?.... im out of ideas
anybody have a clue?
