Default Which remap do i go for?

Right so i know theres a few mappers in the south east of england area, however with my mods im collecting im not sure what remap will give me the best result.

So the list of mods im looking at is as follows

Newage Sti Topmount
3inch decat exhaust
Td05 or one from the vf range
Panel filter
Injectors

Is there anything else i can do bearing in mind im not looking to go much higher then 330bhp mark

A few people have said to me to go for a ecutek remap and some have said go for a simtek as it comes with launch control and antilag.

I know the simtek is more expensive, but id rather get the better software for the car overall regardless of cost

Whats your views guys n girls

If you want to go for the better then I'd probably say alcatek which is new simtek that's if you got the cash. Ecutek will do the job though. And anti lag can be bad for the car overall so personally wouldn't bother unless it's going on the strip

il confirm that iv got decat downpipe vf35 indcuction kit and front mount and then went for the simtek from simon at jolly green monster despite having a few problems with the intercooler that was on at the time (new one fitted, waiting to return home from afghan for another run) the car was hitting the 300bhp mark easily and after another remap simon recons an easy 330-350 but the simtek has got loads on it software wise to protect the engine ignition retard etc all that business plus the launch control and antilag which is soo tempting all of the time lol vf35 according to simon is much better spools earlier than the td which is much better aswel i asked the same question a while back and got pretty much this answer good luck bud
