Default SIMTek remap by JGM

Folks

Got my 99STI 5 re-mapped by Simon at JGM on wednesday at surrey rolling road. It was a very satisfying experience indeed, after a full H&S decat, walbro 255, Apexi induction kit and Simtek ECU the car produced 322BHP and 300ft/lbs of gear box teeth removers. After fixing a loose spark plug that cough.. errm i fitted 6 months ago and re-setting the gaps which i cough... took for granted six months ago the car runs sweet.

hope there is no lasting damage from my oversight, although why sell spark plugs at .7mm if they need setting anyway Just sell all spark plugs as 1.0 and state they need setting instead

Thanks to Charlie at Surrey RR as well for being a good host and rekindling his love for the ST5 handling on the road test afterwards

Highly recommended

Adam

I think simon mapped it to 1.4 bar although as my PSI3 data monitor no longer works i can't see the ecu boost readout. Simon could probably confirm it. Hopefully there will be a display coming for the Simtek's either that or defi!

PSI3 for sale if anyone wants it also ECU up for grabs
