Default Link G4 +

Looking for recommendations on who to map my car on link.
2.5 scd fully forged what’s a reliable power figure to aim for I’m currently at 400hp with supporting mods to run 500hp on Ecutek racerom. I don’t like The juddering on the standard ecu hence why going for the link. I can’t afford syvecs and feel it’s to much for what I need on a fast road car.
Many suggestions on mappers would be great
thanks

I no bob is good but he doesn’t do any fitting and I want lambda knock and oil sensors fitting and would like it all done at one time by one person so if anything is not right it can’t be blamed by someone else’s work if that makes sense

the G4+ will be able to use your existing knock sensor, it only needs configured in the software. The wideband you can get fitted in advance by anyone and just have the 5v signal wire run to the ECU so you can quickly swap it in for mapping time but again the link can use the standard o2 for cruise/idle emissions. Unless your thinking of the link canbus wideband?

how come the car is juddering though on the standard ECU, are you sure it's ECU related and not something else at fault?

Yes I’m thinking of using the canbus wide band.
Ive had 3 hawk sti all modified and mapped accordingly and not one of them drove very nice low down in slow moving traffic I’m lead to believe this is down to the drive by wire and the small margin of correction on the standard ecu. I’m no mapper or engine builder so this is only what I’ve been told.

I also have a forged 2.5 hawk that also judders at low revs, recently had it on scoobyclinics dyno for a health check and it's just a combination of a front mount/cone filter and std ecu. I will be having the link g4 fitted and mapped by the clinic very soon
