Default Racedynamix??

Thinkin of gettin my 53 plate scooby wrx sti type uk remapped. Been in touch with racedynamix who can remap for £350!! Spoke to the guy and he sounds very helpfull.

Was wondering if any one has dealt with them and have any feed back before i make my mind up what i am going to do

Cheers
Andy

mate just do a search for race dynamix or duncan on here or even scoobycity and you will see he does a top job.
ive never seen a bad review yet.
that includes when he mapped my last car.
Go for it!

He did my MY03 wrx and got 275bhp out of it (on Zens dyno). Only real performance 'mod' was the PPP exhaust and decatted uppipe.

He's since been back to remap it again with more things I've added/swapped.
Absolutel top bloke, can't recommend him enough

I can defo vouch for Duncan he's a 110% star, Done both my Sti hawkeye and also On doing My 2.35 wagon project with a Syvecs, I cant praise him enough and many scooby owners will also agree
and he own/races a Hawkeye which says it all

What does he charge for milage to travel to you? Coz the remap price of £350 is very tempting!! Just depends how much he charges to travel to you or is this included in the £350??

Hi

Thanks for the kind words people

I don't tend to charge petrol unless I am making a one off trip just to do yours. I tend to group 2 or 3 in the same area for the same day so that there is no need to charge petrol/travel time.

Been mapping in Wrexham before - not a bad trip tbh - a bit nearer than Drews place

Not had any mapping carried out by Duncan but from what i have heard he is a very knowledgable and helpfull fella and has learnt from the best.....

Say no more.....

He has scores of happy customers and is willing to go that extra mile....

Duncan is one of the best mappers out there. He has tweeked mine a few times and have found he bends over backwards to help you and others.

Duncan's mapping skills are second to none and you couldn't meet a nicer guy,like the many other posts nobody's got a bad word to say about him

PS Dunc how's it going? will be ready for the next stage hopefully in the next few months so want to see at least 370 out of the 43

I need to change the decat pipe and have found this on ebay:-

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SUBARU-IMPREZA...es_CarParts_SM

Is this the one i need as the rest of the exhaust is stainless and middle cat has been removed already!

Can any one point me in the right direction as to what gaskets i will need??

Cheers
