Here's a genuine question then incase I've been harsh...

What are people's thoughts (that if indeed the car is well into 300's) on said controllers over a remap?

Again looking past the styling (as more chavved up examples have been sold on here), would the clean engine bay hold up without said proper remap for the mods??

That's why IMHO it didn't seem harsh, but open to debate

I'd still rather have a remap at least u no its set up properly or you can easy get a controller aswell as a remap

With hindsight 300 is optimistic ( goin
On the ic alone ) and I'm not as tired this morning
A remap is without a doubt the way to go
Using controllers for various things is not really the best method tbh
But as is the case it's down to the user , provided your not whacking up the boost to the max ( which some do) you can gain a little here and there
All depends on what the guy has done , could be on the edge of disaster or might not

Still wouldn't touch it with a barge pole!

Been chav'd up to poo and guessing figures with no details on the mods or if it's been mapped. Walk away, better yet RUN!

Most of the crap can be removed, leaving a pretty rare red type RA, with what looks like the correct, original, engine
