newbie help
first of all hi guys this is my first thread,
i have a my00 scoob with 35000 on the clock it has been fully decatted with a
s/s mongoose,a pipercross induction kit and a baily dumpvalve.
ive owned the car for 2 years now and im wanting it faster ive popped down
to graham goodes and they are saying remap the ecu and leave it at that
only i was after abit more than that or do the engines become unreliable with any more power(on the my00) any sugestions appreciated

IIRC A decat MY00 with a good ECU remap should see 260-280 bhp and similar torque without compromise to reliability. Beyond that, you'll need to start thinking about upgrading the turbo etc... Speak to a mapper on here for the best advice though!

There are several mappers that post on here, all very highly regarded, some work for various companies, so you should ask whatever company you're thinking of taking the car to who they use. The one's that get the most mentions are (in no particular order):
Andy Forrest
Richard Bulmer
Bob Rawle
Pat Hereborne
Steve Simpson
Simon don't recall his surname (he maps for Zen performance)
Good luck.
