Thumbs up FB Tuning well recommended

took me car to fb tuning on thursday cos she wasnt very well.onto the diagnostic machine n she was only pushing bout 180 bhp with all sorts of problems. left it with him fri n sat n ive jus picked it up and to say im pleased is an understatement. turns out that me air flow meter was shot, so had a new one of them installed, hks air filter,oil filter n oil, plugs n got rid of the dump valve. he remapped it to 270 bhp an it was like driving a different car on the way home. he also fitted a morette headlight conversion for me. its a bit of a trek from tilbury but well worth it.
carlsberg dont do scooby tuning but if they did they would probably use him
