WRX Remap - Lack of Cooling ?
Hi,
Cany anyone help - It ried to get my car (WRX 2004) remapped today on the rollers. I got a call at the end of the day telling em he hasnt been able to do it. He explained that the fans he has were not strong enough to keep the temperatures down which was thropwing the fueling out ? He said that he could guess but it was too dangerous.
The mapping was going to cost me £450 - Is there anywhere else i can get this done? I dont have hundreds of pounds extra for a ecutek license. I guess £500 would be near the maximum. Any Ideas ?
Thanks

Sorry i just dont get the comments made.
The mapper said it wasnt going to work. So he stopped. Whats so scarey ? JGG loose the comments as you are too far from me.
I get respect for the mapper spending a day trying to get it sorted and then geting no money at the end. He has a brand new LPS3000 Maha - so it is early days. I for one am not goign to pay for some license to remap my car.
Jasonius - You not learnt - Answer the post of leave it - comments like "FFS, what does that tell you..?!! " does not add to the question.

What it 'tells you' is there are so called professional people out there, who claim to know something they don't and take your hard earned for it..!
think about this, how do you know he hasn't already caused damage trying to map it with insufficient cooling..?!
There are PLENTY of well respected Impreza tuners/mappers out there who know what they're doing, so don't risk being someone else's guinea pig as butty says..!

Hi Simon, Frosty by any chance ?
Mine seems to be getting even better, as I start to use it more "enthusiastically" !
Many thanks for the hard work you put in to it.

lack of airflow when on a dyno is caused by too weedy a fan on the dyno not the car. (normally airflows when the car moves forward so dont need fans that will cool the car pushed, if temps are getting to high its a fualt with the dyno setup, unless theres a mechanical reason for temps getting to high. the fans are suposed to simulate normal road airflows as much as possible)
