They had a rocky patch but my dealings with Jase in the last 3 years have been spot on, mike tuckwood moved on and is no longer part of the business.

Went their recently for a power run. I was happy with their knowledge and will be booking with them again for mapping.
When i was there they told me they were changing servers so their website is down at the moment

I've been there a few times for rolling road days, but not had any work done

Jase is a nice guy and always helpful.

I've not heard many bad stories about them, the last one was 'brad type R' or 'Type R brad' it's a few years ago now, it was brad that supplied parts and area 52 built the engine. The engine failed, but don't know if brad had supplied inferior/faulty parts, or poor workmanship. no outcome was publicised.


If it's just mapping, what about Pat at the clinic?

Hoping to find somewhere close to home because the car will have to be trailered for the initial map.

TDR seem to get a lot of good press.I think they could be favourite.
