This is interesting, as Roland didn't need to do the ECU remap, so I assume this is because the s'charger is rotating fast enough lower down - however I don't know enough to be sure of that!

Glad your enjoying your 220 conversion (I have the same + a few more mods) your on a slippery modification slope now

Going hard gear changes come with practice you just need to get used to the new power delivery and smoothing changes out
