New re-map

impressive gain from a re map ,any chance of seeing the before and after graphs?

Trinity Mtrs reckoned the car could handle it.just seemed to think it needed wider parameters for the air/fuelling etc which the other ecu's would provide, but i'm far from a techy and only going by what they suggested.

how comes you did not go the little bit extra your self then and have the bigger cams put in. what sort of price are we talking about to have cams done got to be near the 2 grand mark aint it.

about 500quid for the cams and pullies and same for fittin

oh right that aint as bad as i thought it would be. I can see me having this done sometime in the near future .

unfortunately the tech guy didn't give me one and i didn't think to ask.The guy showed me the power figure on the printout but was in such a rush to blast it back down the M42 forgot to ask him for it when i left.these were the runs:
1st - 187bhp(i had a problem with the lamda sensor
on my decat pipe)
2nd - 197bhp(problem sorted and erased)
3rd - 211bhp(re-mapped)
4th - Tried to advance the timing by 2deg for more
power but the car wasn't having any of it.

Actually now you mention it i'm going to ring em and get him to send it in the post.

Depends where you go to have it done(labour costs)but mine was about £1250.00 for the camshafts, pullies,fitting and a unichip piggyback ecu(which ended up doing squat).Have still got that ecu actually.Didn't decide to go with the high profile cams as i do to many miles tavelling to and from Germany and couldn't risk the possibility of any running issues.If had i lived and travelled close to home i would have gone for the other cams.

Oh right i see in a thread earlier you said i should invest in an oil catch tank i would but i aint got a clue how to fit it. I think i may have a problem with one of my valves (i dont know if its in my mind) but the car feels sometimes as if its sluggish then there is a kick of power then it will be sluggish like something is stuck or stiff.
