Long long time for a remap. Surely there must be some figures now......

So was the car not 'booked in' for its remap then? The car's just been dropped off and is being mapped whenever they get round to fitting it in??

Would have thought given the uniqueness of the car and the work that will have to be done to map it that it would have had a proper booking slot with full attention on the car, not done as a side project whenever time allows....

Steve - understand you've been ill mate but you've been without your MG for 18 months, and the car was taken to be mapped 3 weeks ago but you've not called one single time to ask whether it's been done??

My car has been at a tuning specialist for 2 weeks now having blueprinted turbo internals done, intercooler fitting and remapping and the tuner calls me every 3 days to give me a progress update, even if it's only to say they received delivery of a part.

I don't think there's any more than a handful of tuners who work in this way in this country.

Unfortunately I think these days it's the vehicle owners passiveness that allows the tuner/s to take the **** out of customers more and more.

If he'd have chased since day one and applied the pressure with a few phone calls etc I bet it'd have been finished 6 months ago

I won't lie - I'm just **** stirring like Dave ZS-X coz I'm waiting for dinner and I'm bored.

It takes 1 single day, 2 at most to do even the most complex of remaps with hundreds of parameters to adjust.

My bet is the figures have already been produced and now they're trying to figure out how to tell Steve his ?XXXXX only produced Corsa VXR power.

Who said anything about a remap? I dont recall anything about that.

The mapper at Thor is abroad.

As for me, I do not eat sleep and drink MGs anymore. I have taken a different career move and Steves car will be sorted once its been back to Thor.

As previously stated, I wont be giving any information about the car out as i cant be doing with the politics about it anymore.

Maybe Ben if you want to pay the actual whole labour bill i will work on it every minute you pay me.

The fact is that Steves personal financial affairs are his own business. I do not see Steve posting up anything negatively about anything to do with me or his car.

People are to quick to judge, which is why arguments take place.

Its Steves car and his business and he is the only person i will take flack off regarding anything to do with his car.
