Hi Ed , how could the map be corrupted or wiped ?

surely only if the ecu is damaged that could happen.

Eddie will become famous soon enough
It's possible to load an old map, not exactly sure how DTA works but I'm clutching at straws as I'm trying not to believe Thor would do something so stupid.
I can't see the engine running 230bhp and not being damaged in some way due to it not having a tune, that's an enormous gamble to take, as I said, maybe it's running the base map which was used to drive it to Thor for mapping, this would imply AFR's have been mapped but timing left very conservative, but no way would it make 230bhp.
Something dont add up

You have to wonder what is the deal with this car, it seems to have been dragging on for ever.

so this could be going further so i don't wont to say to much at the mo
so nothing will be happen for a while gutted is not the word one little plus side is it's 230 bhp ish with out the map so there could be a little more there

cant blame G for this as he did not do the mapping
if its been to thor to be mapped and its not right, why is steve from track and road coming to look at it.........if thor have been paid to map it , then they should be the ones correcting it, otherwise you are paying twice, you are paying steve to do what thor have already been paid to do. Nobody pays twice for one job, it doesn't make sense.

sorry steve but this is G's b/s again.

i do believe it has been mapped at thor. what wont have been done (looked at or even talked about) is having a map or some settings for an mot.

that will take a lot of tweeking to get something to idle properly and keep emmisions at sensible levels. this may also need some cam adjustments!

G saying thor hasnt mapped it so you cant get an mot is just more b/s.

I think I agree with Drew here, time to cut G out, don't think he is interested anyway, if I was Steve I'd contact Thor and get it sorted.
