Advice please....

Currently preparing a list of impending mods, and am trying to decide whether to go the EVC route or ECU-style upgrade. If I go the ECU route I am looking for opinions for PE Phase 1 versus Possum-Link. Obviously the Link, and for that matter Bob R and the gang, have a great reputation but looking at the dyno charts it appears the PE conversion is also very effective, not just top end BHP but throughout the rev range. I know little about either so any advice would be greatly received...

John

Quite a few people on this list will tell you not to go the PE Phase 1 way. I had the phase 1 fitted to one of my cars some time back and the car has been running for 2 hard yrs and done over 40,000 miles.
This is besides the point, forget it. Power Engineering no longer do the Phase 1.
Link is an excelant way to go as you can keep modding the car and getting Bob to remap it for you time and time again. Get a Knocklink and boost gauge at least if you you go this way. You may even want to map it yourself, but I never did. I know I would have asked for more all the time, so was just happy with the map Bob gave me. As Bob has an excelant reputation with the link I was happy to run the car hard with the map Bob put in.

I don't suppose you can tell me who does Link around the Uxbridge area...or is it just B.R Developments...and i guessing that the B in B.R Developments stands for Bob...!!!as i am new to this territory and thinking of going the same way as Disco

Cool

Q. Above.
A. Link.

I suspect the B in BRD probably stands for Bozic (sp?), which is the surname of Bob Rawle's co-conspiritor.

Bob Rawle is moving from the SW area to be I believe nearer London way. Give him a shout and ask where he is working from now.
