Anyone know anywhere good in the South West (or close ish too) where I can get a recently decated , modified 94 Classic tuned up nicely. Guess I'll need a rolling road etc would like to know the true BHP anyway. Its got some nasty overboost since the decat hence the problem. I dont mind travelling it needs be but some where localish would be nice. Im in Frome near Bath....

Any reccomendations ??? And how much would you expect this this cost ?

Thanks

Try Powerstation, Cheltenham

They'll do most things - including remapping if you want it.

http://www.powerstation.org.uk/

Not connected with them in any way, other than the fact that they have done work for me in the past, on my FTO, and I went there last night to see my STi8 (courtesy of Iain Litchfield) ready for them to work on...... bruhahahahaha!!!

Powerstation is the place alright. They did my bump steer and suspension set up. They have all the right kit and know what they are up to.

Thumbs up

Had fun digging this thread back up !! anyway, thanks for the advice people. Had a day off yesterday and spent the afternoon @ powerstation. Great bunch of guys, not sure my visa card liked them so much but what the hell.

Sorted all my problems with the car, new springs to raise the ride height and improve handling, geometroy and bump steer correction, three new coils (the main problem) and rolling road tested to a lovely 276 BHP, not bad for a 94 classic ???

Car drives like a dream now.

For anyone that has been there I also watched Richs bulldog get run over by a guy leaving, front left straight over him as he laid out in the sun, couldnt believe it the dog was fine. One rock hard dog.

Anyway thanks to Rich, Dirk and the team @powerstation, I would certainly reccomend them to anyone.
