Mapping........
Hi guys, just after a bit of advice. Just finished my engine re-build and now the bloody thing needs mapping (like i havent spent enough 
)
Who should i use or who have you guys used that is good? Ive heard a lot of horror stories about mapping so i would rather use someone well known if you get what i mean. It should make 380bhp (ish) if this helps? Not running silly power. Im in Surrey btw
Any help/advice/numbers would be greatly appreciated

Hello Mate i have just used Bob Rawle he is a top bloke and will work hard to make sure your motor is running at its best. When i arrived at his place he checked over the whole engine. He replaced aload of pipe work that some one had played with and messed up trying to make the turbo boost more free of charge. Then chatted to me about what i want.
I know have a two stage map so one runs a low boost so when i am just driving about town i use that. Then with a flick of a switch i hit the high boost mode and go nuts which i love. The car feels so much better now its night and day the change in it is that great. His web site is BRDevelopments
Cheers James

As Simon says Simtek is a good option for that sort of power, or alternatively the ESL daughterboard which is also mafless and will be able to run twin maps in the next few weeks.

I was going to say find out why it blew up first, but, if I'm reading it correct, a 2.5 in an early classic on the OEM ECU is most likely an accident waiting to happen.

It'll be immense whichever route you take, there's enough mappers locally to you to be able to pick a good one

Once you are on the slippery slope of modifying, there is no return. It will cost your 1000s in search of more power, reliability.
Your wife, girlfriend will leave you. You'll have sell your house and become a criminal to fund your subaru addiction.
