Default best place to get a ECU for 97 UK Turbo?

Hey all

whats the best place to get a ECU tuned for 97 UK Turbo.

id like a Prodrive one if possible, but anything considered..... i am still running the standard TD04 turbo, so dont need something with big boost maps.

just need the fuel up'd and boost level, and maybe some tweak to the low down torque on engine as it feels sluggish at the moment until on full boost.

cheers
James

dont want to spend more than 400 quid probably

i know i can get an Apexi Power FC and controller from Austrlai for £658, but dont really want to spend that much considering the car wont gain to much.

just want a more stable ECU.

Apexi £700 fitted and mapped.
and a good power increase.
Thats the best solution.

The car would gain quite a lot for the £700 - and you wouldn't be throwing your money away - you'd get at least £400 for the ECU on the second hand market.
