Remap Pics

I couldn't head over today unfortunatley.
At least you got good weather for it.
Is that your car with the coin?

Cheers guys.

I was made most welcome and am over the moon everyone is happy with the work.

I am shocked at how mad on cars the Irish are, I really had no idea it was more so that in the UK !

Thanks lads it was a great weekend and it was a pleasure to work on such well maintained cars.

The best part for me the whole weekend was the expression on peoples faces after the test drive

Was that heading into Jurys carpark, Bear? More than likely is mine you saw, then - I park there every day (and I was probably late for work!!!)

Massive improvement in driveability - better throttle response, more power and 4mpg better consumption so far. Was surprised more people didn't take advantage of he offer.

I'm getting it done as soon as I can free up some cash....asap is what I mean!!!

Steven - I don't know much about the technical ins and outs or the differences between them, but here's my tuppence worth.

I got a quote of €800 to chip the car in Galway, offering me the same gains as the remap.  However, they were going to use a piggyback system onto the ECU, which would be immediatly visible.

The remap cost normally around €350, I think, but because there were so many of us doing it, it cost €250 each.  Same gains as the chip, with a lowering of fuel consumption.  Also, it came with a gaurantee that if a dealer overwrote the remap, then they'd redo it again for free.  Hadn't seen much feedback for Martin (AutoRemap) at that point, but Jaysons (ChippedUK) reputation preceeded him as being top notch.

I'd recommend using either of them (Martin or Jayson) to anyone here who's contemplating a remap.

Does that answer the question?

Thanks for that, I have been unsure whether to have a replacement chip or a remap.Sounds like a remap is probably the better route. I will contact Jayson and get his advice also.As you say his reputation is excellent so I have no issue with dealing with him I just want a feel of what other people see as the best option. He's about an hour and a half drive from me so it will be worth the trip. Thanks again for the reply. Steve.

Richie, I thought your car was already producing 196bhp?

I want to get it done as soon as I get home (2nd half of April) but want to get it on the rollers first though to see what the gains are.

 I'm sure there'd be a couple of people who missed the last one who'd get it done at the same time?
