Are there any Scooby tuners further North than the Watford Gap??!!

I live in the cold, barren, desolate wasteland known as the North East, but would like to get something similar to a Power Engineering "Phase 1" mod done to my ECU.
I'd prefer someone with plenty of Scooby experience (so they know what they are doing) and with a rolling road, to set it up properly.

My idea would be to drive in, leave the car for a few hours or so and then drive out with more power to make me smile!

Can anyone suggest anywhere??? I don't mind travelling, but for me to go all the way down to Middlesex is a bit of a hike, but if it has to be done, then it has to be done!! Somewhere around Leeds area would be nice as it's just a quick blast down the A1 for me

Cheers

Marty

Try Well Lane at Batley and see what they have to offer by way of power up grades.
I also hear that you can get re-maps by post but not sure I would be happy with that.
If it is an ECU TEC you want then surely it would be best to invest in a 500mile ish round trip and get it done by an expert. Speak to Merv or Stephen at ECU TEC.

Sorry mate....MY98

TSL can do something, but it uses the Motec ECU ..... a tad too expensive I think!!

It's looking like I am going to have to have a run down Power Engineering!!!!!! I'll have to have a day in London or something while they mod the car.

Do the Scottish contingent all have standard cars, or have they all used John Banks for their re-maps??

Cheers

Call Steve Simpson on 07836 635001, (based in Lancs). He left Cyprus today after tuning my StiV. He did a fantastic job and the car is a total beast.
