jolly green monster
Just met simon that mapped my car previously before i brought it. I just had anti lag added to the simtec down at surrey rolling road where he was mapping and doing power runs. U dont understand how much fun can come from a switch lol. Anyone thinking of getting any mapping would 100 % recommend simon talked u through everything and was happy to answer any questions u had lol.

Much better on the road, pulls well and the power delivery is spot on.

ALS in a road car is just noise ... be careful with your turbo though
best to use it sparingly

Turbo stall due to no dump valve.
Also wrongly called wastegate chatter.

. But on a road car setup you wont see as massive a gain in spool but the fantastic noise etc
best to use it sparingly
