Hello... I've done a few bits to the track car now. High lift inlet cam, induction kit, De-cat, full after market exhaust and lightened fly & pulley. Just wondering is it worth getting a remap? I've never had a remap so haven't got a clue about it? Also does anyone know anyone in the southeast, Kent area that are any good? Cheers

You say high lift inlet cam? Which cam is it? Why not change the exhaust cam also?

It cost me £30 but he only had inlet, opinions on here suggested that would be fine to do. Can't remember exactly, think it's pipercross fast road. 270? I'll double check when I get in...

I thought the pistons go too close for high lift cams etc?

Anymore than 270 and/or if you've had the head skimmed after a head gasket failure. I think

Wayne Schofield is the best person to map the standard ECU, but he's based in Warrington, Cheshire. Well worth the trip though. Yes

Jesus, that's 4 hours 7 mins away! There's no way I could travel that far for a remap. It would break my back in that thing! Lol. There must be someone more local that could do it?

cheaper than buying an S40 for about £450, a loom at £300, mapping at £300...

as far as I know yep, or at least with a good rep and knowledge of the pug engine as well as the MM1AP10 ecu.

martin fox at mef motorsport can do you a plug and play DTA ecu that could use your original ecu, save a bit on the loom.

That would be handy if they could as i need the daily cupra diesel remapped as well and there only 20 mins away! What's the difference in a remap/ chipped ecu? (Apart from the obvious chip being a physical addition to the ecu)?

you have to "chip" a standard ecu before you can map it, the main reason it costs a bit more with the MM1ap ecu is that it needs socketing and a new chip installing, subsequent maps will cost less.

So I need to know if they will chip it and put a custom map on it or whether they just stick a generic chip in the ecu and that's it? Excuse the dumbness I've never had or looked into remapping before.

I don't believe it was generic chip. It was mapped. Best to give them a shout and ask

Be careful with AMD. Friends in the ford world which is a lot of their work have had issues. Friends ST had a remap there, rolled it a week later at a RR day and it had to be aborted due to overfueling terribly. They did admit the mistake but not really the point.

hmm, I might give them a ring and find out a bit more, see what they say and put it on here... What sort of price should I be looking for a decent remap?

Anywhere from £200 - 650 at a guess. We charge £500 + vat, most volvo guys are about £350 (the good ones) etc etc.
