Default Andy Forrest remap tomorrow!!!!!

finally, after a long wait and counting down the days i will be taking the short drive down from my house in edinburgh to see andy and get my my00 uk turbo mapped with ecutek software, cant wait, been driving like miss daisy since thursday when i had a few parts fitted in preperation of the remap, im hoping for the magic 300bhp and similar torque, should be a fair bit livelier than standard!!

Enjoy! At least you don't have a long drive - but soon that's exactly what you'll want!

Andy mapped mine a couple of years ago, the drive back from Port Setton was most enjoyable.

You'll get 300 no problem .. I got 280 on a decat, pannel and fuel pump .. I dont think the pump made any difference though ..

just back, wow!!!! what a difference! first thing andy commented on was that it was still on the origina maf sensor, car has done 54k, once the software was downloaded and car was idling andy was checking all reading and the maf wasnt performing as it should, it wasnt totally shot, but andy had concerns, but we would find out once the car was under load, once on the open road andys concerns were confirmed and we didnt drive the car hard until we popped along to penicuik and alex f nobles where i had to buy a new maf (£105!!!) andy fitted it and checked it before we set off again, now perfect, so off we went............. few runs on the bypass on the A1 runs from 3k to 5500k in 4th etc and andy was finally happy that she was mapped perfectly, so now the crunch time, time for a few runs to see what figures she was putting out, i already knew judging just how hard and fast she was pulling with the extra whooooooooooosh from the hybrid td04 which by the way was spooling as quick as ever just sooooooo much harder, that the figures should be good, and they were,

bhp - 305bhp, torque - 311 lbf :-) i am one very happy customer, andy commented on how well she drove and also what a lovely example she is, cant thank or recommend andy highly enough. im away for a drive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
