I had my classic STI mapped twice by Andy (drove down from Aberdeen) and each time was a great experience. He really does take the time to explain what he is doing and the results each time were brilliant! Just a pity he no longer maps classics - I'd like another classic at some point and would be stumped for an alternative tbh!

Hi have you the contact details for Andy as want my car map tweaking after new headers thanks.As the last mapper just wanted to take my money and at the end said could make more power but headers are leaking.

Thanks for that. I'm not in a major rush as car is still off road suspension and headers to renew.

After chasing a similar power delivery and fun to drive experience I finally decided to get rid of my E92 M3 and get a Hawkeye.... "With the dodgy 2.5L", torque delivery made it quite a different drive to the original 2.0L, Anyway it was mapped already but booked it into Andy who, as stated this time took it away himself this time whilst I went to the café ;) he altered the fuel at the top end as it was a little lean due to the RCM filter and gave the car a clean bill of health.

Anyway with the downshift blip and peace of mind Andy mapped the car I have been delighted since. I know little about mapping but he shared a lot of his knowledge and what would be my next moves for more power if I wished but appreciated the car was a garage queen and that I had taped up the paintwork where the sensor cables run :cry:.

Hope you enjoy the hatch post map, she looks great and sure it will be the best money you spend on the car.

Cheers

cheers mate, going in for a good drive today so can’t wait*

she’s a weekend toy anyway so plan on keeping her that way

That's what I've done sold my e90 m3 and ended up buying a hawk wrx sti that's been mapped by andy Forrest . Mines running 360bhp 420 torque . Don't regret getting rid of the m3 one bit the Hawk*is miles more fun faster and handles better .
