Bob has done mine twice, first time, I drove, that WAS hairy, it was mapped to about 1.3 bar on a standard UK engine. Trying to keep it on the boost Bob wants while watching the road and trying NOT to watch the speedo...............

It's just recently been remapped to 1.5 bar on a forged 2.5.

Harvey Smith drove.

What ecu are you running? The 98 ones aren't mappable.

Bob has mapped all three of my Impreza's for me and I have nothing but good things to say about him.

It is hard at first to hold the boost as he wants but now after three mapping sessions I'm getting quite good at it, but as said it can be hard to hold boost, keep an eye on traffic and your speed as well. In the end I just ignored the speedo and concentrated on the boost gauge.

I also organised a group buy with Bob a while back and I'm glad to say of the 30+ people who had their cars mapped not one person had anything negative to say.
