Default ECU Re-map in the TT area?

Hi all, anywhere in the North East (Durham, Newcastle, Boro) do a re-map? I'm going to be fitting a cold air induction kit and a down pipe de-cat and was wondering if I needed a re-map or if a re-map would help get any extra BHP.

Regards,

Phil.

i would get andyf to map it and he is in edinburgh but worth the drive drive your car off boost once you fit that cold air kit until mapped as it could cost you £££££ if you dont in repair bills

Have found a bloke called Harvey Smith (not the show jumper) in Darlington who specialises in Subaru's. Apparently he is the muts nuts. He has a 400BHP WRX and a 600+BHP wagon. I'm going to see him next Friday and have a chat about some engine mods. I will take a few pics of his motors for all to see.Phil.

Phil,

Harvey is one of the founder members of the Tyne Tees Scoobies and an incredibally knowledgable person on all things Subaru. He will offer 'sound' advice without any 'strings'.

Without Harvey's help, advice and enthusiasm, my car would still be an ordinary WRX.

Listen and Learn

Cheers Martin. I got his name through a bloke I work with called John Hennesey. I spoke to Harvey today and he certainly knows what he is talking about. I am looking forward to meeting him and gaining a bit more knowledge about my Impreza.

Phil.

p.s. I am going to try to make it to the next meet.
