Question

Anyone know a good rolling road tuner in Scotland who will do servicing also ?
I'm coming up for my 30k service soon so would like to get her dyno'd at the same time.

I'm in Edinburgh, so not too fussed about distance to a point.
If anyone's used Falklands or AWD before let me know.

I've used Falklnds before - they were really helpful and interested. Prices are reasonable.
Makes a change from my local Subaru dealer, who is neither helpful, interested or reasonable.

Thumbs up

I've used AWD a few times, very knowledgeable guy (Scott) who has a wealth of Subaru experience plus have most Subaru special tools including Select monitor and manuals to carryout awkward tasks.

Thanx guys
Don't really want to use the official Penicuik lot (although I do have the SIDC discount if I want it) and I've heard they can be a bit funny about euro-imports.

Cheers John.
Will be a couple of months before my finances recoup after the wedding but I'll give you a shout.

Also, read another thread in which you recommended the Link ECU.
I possibly have a chance to buy it from the cars previous owner.
It's been already mapped to the car (pre-Optimax tho).
Would you recommend me investing in it ?

I suggest a Link for cars for which an Ecutek remap is not available, or for people who want to self map or must get rid of their MAF sensor, since otherwise people complain that I can't suggest anything to them

If you want your MY99 or 00 tuned I know a man that can help who is in Fife see my profile. But I don't use a RR to tune on as the airflow and therefore the map - esp boost control are not realistic and my map at PE needed many revisions on the road.
