I have used Bob Rawle who was very good and a gentleman too. I have also used mark at TDR who again is very good and also very honest. If I needed another map doing my choice would be mark at TDR as he was cheaper but also a lot more local to me. Had lots of work done there and would not take it anywhere else now. I'm guessing there is no right or wrong mapper as they all map a car very much the same its down to distance and cost. Oh and the fact they are all in contact with one another in some shape or form.

I think many on here would disagree with this and would say the map is the most important factor in determining whether a car drives really well or like a complete dog. Bad map = car detting its t!t$ off, even forged builds going pop. Some on here can vouch for this.

Well, to be fair, I haven`t chased him as I have been away from civilization and media a fair bit, and he needs a chance to see it; It`s easy to cry foul when a failing component is causing the issue, and not the map, I am aware of that. Still, it is the 2nd car I have had mapped there, and that had the same sort of holding back jerk when flooring it from low revs, just not so bad.

Paul worked on my old car many times, I wouldn't of said he was arrogant. Not the most chatty of guys I'll admit but a nice guy none the less and fantastic at his job. Also more than happy to work into the night on one occasion when things weren't going quite to plan.

I, as a rule, judge any mapper by his own vehicle and how it performs. I've used Andy F for many years. Quite the commute from N.I which is a pity as he dosent travel to map any more. I have a car being mapped by Bob Rawle next month and will be able to directly compare it to my own current car that was mapped last year by AF. Engineering/development is key I believe in a mappers background. Plenty of whiz kids around that can use a laptop without fully appreciating the consequence of their adjustments. Especially on a long term basis.

I'm guilty of using the 'respected mapper' tag, I am more than happy to say I wouldn't use anyone else other than Andy Forrest. Having spent most years in Scotland he's the only one I'd trust.

I'm looking to get my car mapped and when I see threads like this honestly it puts the ****s up me......
My cars on a running in map at present and when I pick my car up from api on the 26th of September I will be looking for a mapper to map it on a rolling road somewhere on the way home to Wales. But I'm not sure who to trust after a bad experience with a company whos reputation used to be great but now a complete shambles.
