They first advertised around Christmas, and have appeared again recently.
Not sure how good their maps are or how much they know about all the different ECU variants (and some of their querks).
S/W looks good though, similar to WRX Edit (which Alex on here wrote and some Russian guy ripped off). But the same info can be displayed in tabular and 3D Graph in MSExcel, if you know how to decode the source code (which MsExcel can do and myself David Wallis and Pavlo used to use, and I still use as I trust what it's doing).
But the S/W is only any use if you understand it and know what your doing.

Once you purchase the adaptor board with a generic map, they include map manipulation software with it for your PC (and also a free download on their web-site soon).
But this only allows you to manipulate the map on your PC, not flash it into the car.
You then presumably email it to them and they will blow/programme another pair of chips for £50
I've been using a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet to decode and re-create all my maps since 2000.
There is a more user friendly alternative i.e Alex's WRX Edit. But I'm stuck in my ways and trust my methods and what my Microsoft spreadsheet outputs.
