Default Remap - Where in the South West?

Anyone have any ideas who is the best company to use in the South West ( Bristol area) for getting my 06WRX remapped. I have just bought it and I'm assured that, apart from a rear box I cant identify, its standard so wanted to get a panel filter and then have her remapped to let her breath a bit better.
Also, does anyone have any evidence to prove that remapping improves economy? A strange question I know but it is supposed to optimise the engine performance so i would assume it would make it more efficient, if driven reasonably. Before anyone starts, I have not bought this car for economy, I would have kept my Passat Deseasel for that, I want some honest fun and bang for buck the WRX is the car for that.

Andy
P.S big smartie points to anyone that can identify my backbox from the photo's on my profile.

Backbox looks like a Magnex to me.

As for remap I`d say try Alan Jeffery - Engine Tuner

There are a few places near you and me I'm in Wilts. I took mine to Bob Rawle yesterday. He totally transformed my car. See my post on here now, it will explain a little of what will take place. He is based in Swindon and will work wonders with your car. Do a search for BRDevelopments and it will give you all the info you need. Good luck.

I'm in Worle but my car is in the garage at the moment, waiting for my licence to be returned so I can start driving again.
And you?

Although I have heared that he isnt the bloke to see if you have money in your wallet, it wont be there for long......you just cant help yourself once there....
