If anyone is interested, had my re-map done by Mocom Racing on Thursday. Zak, as you will probably read on here, is a top bloke certainly knows his stuff. Mapping for £400 including VAT. Tried to do some research prior, around ECUTek and the reasons for costing £650 +VAT like Scoobyclinic & Zen etc..other than having a license. Mocom is alot cheaper alternative and for no real difference in gains.

Jim, Zak also did the first year 10K service for £100. Chandlers wanted £175. Not that the warranty is valid now..!! Luke, who is the 'hands on' mechanic at Mocom travels 150m return to work there and runs a scoob..!!. Must enjoy his job.

 

Lookin quick there ,

Heard nothing but good things from Mocom too, whats your car like after the remap?

 

Nice one

 

yeah was taking coppice at 90mph. ****ting it praying it to stick lol

brilliant day

 

It is quite a scary track Cadwell, in that if you come off, theres a very good chance of a total smash up, only a coup,e of places where theres run off.
Hope I can do another day there this year.

 

Not been mailed the DeltaDash Road Dyno plot, but verbally told around 285 Bhp and around the 300 torque. You really notice the torque, it's like a different motor now especially in the 30-70 mph range. Well pleased with his work and worth the money. Alot different to the standard.
Had the day at Prodrive, Warwick on Friday with the STi on the test circuit and adverse handling. Good day, well organised. Nick Leeson (ex. Lexus BTCC ) instructing.

 

Cool,
Its nice to have a bhp figure but I'm sure you've realised now its not about the numbers but how its delivered, 300torques , it should pull like a *****!

Never been to prodrive, always wanted to, whats the adverse handling, like bumpy track stuff? Wgat can you do on the test circuit? Is it basically a race track?

Dill

 

Zak was saying when mapping, its all about the area under the curve not the figures. Pulling power much more fun than '0-60' times for normal road use.
At Prodrive, high speed circuit includes 1.5 mile straight, touch 125-130 Mph. Adverse handling alot narrower and they teach you where to put the car going into bends and speeds in and out. There is about 200m of skid pan where you have to move a legacy side to side all the way down and 4x4 with a 1 in 3.
My old man went as a spectator and went out in the GB270 driven by a West Mercia traffic cop. Frightened the life out of him..!!

 

That'll learn him!
