Default K04 Update. Got flashed yesterday thanks to the folks at Tyrolsport.

Car is running NICE, the extra torque is felt immediately (possibly aided by the new 034 mounts) and it's a very smooth powerband and the power keeps coming strong where the K03 FX felt short. I'm very pleased with my little K04 project. That's it, no more power mods. I've been taking off 1st gear relatively easy because I still have the stock clutch, now I have to make time and $ to take my SB clutch to a shop for the install. That is one project I'm not looking forward to tackling myself.
Still have to update my sig.

Default Enough power?, that's an interesting question.......

I'd say that it's more than enough power for me. Let's not forget that this is a very small displacement engine carrying a whole lot of weight. I wouldn't want any more power unless I was contemplating upgrading the internals, so yes, this is a dead end for me on the power side. I feel the car feels a lot more torquey but not that much faster, although yesterday I went from 40mph to 80mph in what felt like no time at all, it caught me off guard. Because of my current state in the clutch dept. I haven't launched it or anything liked that but on the highway it felt just right, overall very very pleased.

it seems like people feel the K04 gives the car more grunt and ability, not raw power.
