So finally today after waiting for 8 months since getting my car i installed the petes box. i had been eagerly awaiting this product and kept bugging turboindia (a.k.a Peter) to tell me when it would be out. The moment i knew it was out I ordered it.

Today i went to install it. My initial impression was wow that thing is small. Then Viper took it for a spin. He was dissatisfied. So we checked all the connectors and even opened the box to check whether it was getting its power supply. It was and after a quick call to peter we got to know that it might take some time to read the cars ECU maps and then alter them.

Then we started installing the green storm air filter + dynamisation kit. it was a quick job. almost as quick as installing the petes box. By that time V16 had dropped by. We decided to take the car for a spin again (All these spins were on crowded roads). This time V16 also drove it and didnt find much of a difference. There was a nice albeit slightly loud sound from the air filter. I like it lets see how my dad takes to it.

Then I left from there and Viper handed me a cardboard box and said he wanted it back in 2 days. When i opened the box I found a G-Tech Pro.

Now it was my turn to take the car for a spin. So off to Worli Seaface I went. Over there after doing all the calibrations on the G-Tech Pro i took some runs. I was finding a pretty big improvement in all the gears. The acceleration had improved alot and I was liking the growl from the air filter. I guess the box took its own time to read the maps because by the time i reached seaface the car was flying. It was much faster than before in 0-100 and in the in-gear acceleration.

here is the time i managed with the G-Tech -

Yes that is 12.367 seconds to 100kmph!!! Now it can rival some petrol cars. I only had time for this and ill try to take some in gear runs before i give the G-Tech Back to Viper. It will take a while for me to check the FE but i will post it here when i do check it.

Here is how the engine bay looks now -

The original power was 102 bhp and with the petes box + air filter it is around 130bhp (Peter told me about 3-4bhp for the air filter). The original torque was 200nm it is now 260nm (again a bit added for the filter).

Here is a dyno sheet for an innova with only the petes box -

I would like to thank Turboindia and viper.

PS - this box is still running on stage one. Wait till i take it to stage 2 & 3.
