Thumbs up FB Tuning

I just want to say a big THANK YOU to Rich at FB Tuning. He was working on my car this weekend , doing late hours and i mean really late just to get the car done. I want to recomend this genuine Technician and Mapper to everyone. He is passionate about what he is doing and you will always get the best customer service, sensible price and will give the best advice you need. He did stop my car leaking like mad,had done oil service,sorted out reverse gear lights, maped my car, told what other bits need to be changed . He even udjusted and put a new age fuel pump for free as mine was dying..My car runs safe now and pulls like a train.
So once again a huge thanks to Rich @

If you call him between 2am and 4am he's usually free

He should be at the meet if you want to link up with him then

Hopefully m8, i've run the car without remap 3 years, even a track day. Never saved on her thought, always good fluids etc... she was fine, touch the wood she will be now and in the future. The map Rich made is not crazy, it's reliability what makes sence for me as the car is old now. But all i can tell 350 bhp new age will have hard times chasing me.

Great dude, u'll get that trubine spool a bit faster... Me thought, i have my point of view regarding tuning , we probably can spend as much as the pockets are deep and even more , lol BUT. In a real world on the real roads all those little mods that look good on a paper won't do a big diference. If those 400 quid are worth just a bit of spool gain, fair play m8. Enjoy

Not just spool mate,its the torque gain also but i only had the headers as they came to me at a very good pricewrapped as well although the uppipe was full price but worth every penny
My way of thinking is much the same mind but being a mechanic and being able to do all the work par mapping helps of course when it comes to the expense

Just PM, or even better phone, him and he'll tell you what you need to know. His prices are very reasonable

So you would be why he wasnt answering his phone on Sun morning!

Remap is dependant upon whether you want open source or ecutek, and I believe he'll do most mechanical work you may ever need

He done my car, and I would reccommend him again and again
