different cars vary power wise is the first thing to note. decat will always out perform ppp once mapped, the ppp uses a generic performance map, where as custm map will get best prformance out of your engine.

prob worth saving a bit, getting rid of the ppp, decatting and remapping yours, probe be £500 for decat and £650 for remap + vat.
