Cheers. Will i be ok to drive it about 100 miles though as long as i stay off boost because thats how far i have to travel for the mapping.
Or should i just leave it off until i get there?

You cant leave it off until you get there as they can be a pain to fit. Ok to drive up there if you're driving off-boost.

Its a wrx type ra v-limited with full decat and soon to be apc air filter and walbro fuel pump. Andy Forest is the man doing the mapping.
Any other mods you would recomend doing before the map ?

I cant recommend anything over what Andy has advised you as he knows his stuff. Ask his advice and follow it to the letter.

What are your power goals and what year car is it?

Dont know much about the VF22 but I would have thought upgrading the intercooler and FPR would be on the list to achieve 350bhp.

Mine is 350bhp or thereabouts and I upgraded my i/c to a STi8 one and the FPR to SX. I also have Gruppe-s headers which can give more power with less boost.
