hi brownatron
remapp didnt happen as you said earlier couldnt be mapped, wasted trip, so had a tuning box fitted and now my car is very sick, engine hunting on idle and lots of grey/black smoke out of the exhaust
disconnected the box by the way |

had a mobile mechanic look at my car, and it turns out that it was the shoddy workmanship on fitting the box that was the problem, they broke into the harness to the fuel pump and soldered two wires to the wiring, but didnt insulate them properly and they were touching causing all my problems, i wont name them at the moment as im supposed to be getting re-embursed for my expenses, but the attitude of the owner was shocking, passed the buck straight away.
watch this space because i think everyone should know who they are |

I have just had my Sport remapped and what a differeance. Could be another car. More grunt and far more useable power band. I had one of those plug and play boxes before (in fact I had two) and they are RUBBISH in comparison to a proper ECU remap. To tell you the truth the car ran better cold without the plug and play box as with it. I will never install one again. Do your selves a favour and go to people who knmow what they are doing......you won't regret it.
