question about remapping
my car was remapped before i got it, probably because it had a full decat'd, i got a rolling road printout with the car showing its running at 270bhp which the rb5 never was.
my question is when remapped, would the mapper likely have mapped as far as it my parts could have taken it or would the remap likely to have been a consequence of adding those bits only just to making sure the bits that were added would work? (if that makes sense)
short version: is it likely that a mapper wouldn't safely remap to the car to its limits?

Personally I think your best bet would be to ring the company that mapped it to get a clearer picture of what was done to it, With some places you can go back for a tweak after you added few bits etc, As you are probably aware that proper tuners never push it to the limit as many cars are tuned down abit for reliability, But if its some back street garage they probably will push it to the limits but that's when you have things blowing up

i've got a reciept from powerstation uk ltd for a "ecutek remap" which was where it was done but other than that i have no details about what was done on the map itself except for a RR printout.
i'll give them a call tomorrow but afraid i'll come a-cropper if they explain what was done as i'm a total newb when it comes to cars!
assuming a standard PPP'd RB5 except for a lightweight race flywheel (or so the reciept says), a full 3" revolution decat and powertech induction (whatever that is!), does 270hp and 261lb/ft seem "right" from a remap?

Reading what you have said for mods it sounds about right at them power figures..
Im sure thay had a Prodrive re-mapped ECU aswell as standard but im not 100% on that...
