I rang R.C developments today about maybe getting my 1998 uk turbo remapped. I was told that that particular ecu cannot be remapped and would need to have a piggyback ecu fitted and it would cost about 1100 pound to get it fitted and mapped. Is there any truth in this because i am not gonna pay that just for a remap.

thanks Graeme

 

check out jollygreenmonster.co.uk and the apexi power fc, you are lookin at nearly a bird in any case - well worth it tho, 1100 is too high for a pig, the apexi is replacement ecu - im looking at having this done

 

£1100 is way too high for a piggyback ECU.
An Apexi replacement ECU and hand controller should cost around £700 fitted and mapped.

 

do u know any1 that has got the apexi? i was quoted 795 plus the vodka and tonic - thats too high too is it? 1100 for a pig lol, he must be hungry init

 

look out for a second hand one the 98 takes a 3 pin versions i got mine for £340 from someone on here including the hand controller, got i remapped by andy c (based in the north) well worth it makes so much difference and much more economical now as well.

 

can the standard ecu be remapped though?

Hi All :-)

Interesting reading this, as I'm thinking of going with the Apexi ECU + Commander + AVCR unit for better boost control. Mine is a 1996 WRX with a standard V5 ECU which is a 4 pin one. Anybody know which Apexi Unit I may need???

Hey TingTong, you say you had yours done by andy c (based in the north). How easy was it for him to do and do you have any contact details please.............I'm in Merseyside.

Cheers for any help fellas,

Mark.

 

Has anyone had anyone work done by jollygreenmonster? how would you rate them?

 

It's just a him

Never had work done by him but have driven cars mapped by him using various ecus (driven them before mapping and after mapping) and he is very good

 

mapped mine twice now,superb guy is simon certainly knows is stuff,you will not be dissapointed in anyway.

take a look at is site www.jollygreenmonster.co.uk
