You simply can't please everyone, and some will try to find out every single morsle detail for...no reason what so ever. Just to try and catch the mapper out. At the end of the day the results are proven and theres no real solid reason not too do it. It's not asif it's another supercharger scenario is it

When I spoke to Matt regarding using my car as the test bed I did so knowing full well the opinions of owners and tuners alike.

We both went into this session with an open mind and seeing what was available within the standard map and then interrogating it in order to tweak where possible without compromising the quality. The bottom line here is if the session proved to be unsuccessful I would not be charged for the days work. Obviously as an engineer I was watching the work in progress and getting an understanding on what was being done and the cause and effect.

If I had any doubts about Matt's work I would not have gone through with it, but why would I doubt a fellow professional? He has had alot of success on other remaps therefore had the upmost respect for his work. It's a pity some people doubt this just because he has succeeded. Sometimes a fresh pair of eyes and mind is all that is required, sometimes you can be too close to something to see it.

Matt please ignore the nay Sayers, you will always get people who want to question everything and just aren't satisfied. I know full well you'll be getting my car when I can afford the map

What's done it for me is that everyone who's been down to you, has come away happy. Now if there are issues with your rollers and the figures ... I'm not that bothered.....the people themselves, (well respected and highly thought of), have testified to the fact that their car just drives better, and that, my friend, is all we're after.

Whatever I get .... be it a 180 , a diesel, or non-MG .... I'm coming to you.

reidy, this is off topic but i mentioned you to my friend, he has a 2003 astra gsi turbo, its completly standard at 197 bhp, what can one of your remaps get this up to?? how much do you charge to do one of these?? hes been considering the phase 1 from regal autosport, that are just up the road and they claim their software will take a standard z20let to around 235bhp.

Hi there,

Yes we can do this car and we would expect 35-40bhp increase on it if the car was in good condition.

Regal are pretty good with the vauxhaulls but we can do the car also.

Regards Matt
