south lakes, north lancs area

 

4 hours drive to the famous Andy Forrest in Edinburgh.

There are also a number on here that could come to you and also do a great job - Jolly Green Monster (Simon), Duncan at Racedynamix, Bob Rawle (not seen Bob on SN recently?), etc, etc.

 

Steve Simpson maps for TEG sport which I think is down your way.

Shaun

 

Andrew Carr, you will probably find him on the www.ladsoc.co.uk site

Tony

 

been there, id aranged to have some mapping done, drove over an hour and when i got there he said he didnt have time so i wont be going back there!!

i carnt get hold of andy carr so just wonderd if there was any 1 else around here.. and im desprate as my car wont start, imobilisor i think

 

Are AET, Scooby Clinic and The Racing Line all no-no's these days in regards to mapping. I ask as I'd like someone ideally to fit me a 2.5 bottom end and do the mapping.

 

You dont have a sigma alarm do you?If u do it could be something blocking the signal.Sigmas are crap,had loads of probs with mine

 

no i had a simtec which i removed and put what i thought was the original ecu back in and now it turns over but wont start and the key light is lit so i dont think steve simpson has given me my original ecu back... carnt think of any other reason

 

Bummer,if u do find someone decent i'd be interested to know,live in windermere and i'll be looking to get a remap done when i finally sort my engine out

 

Phone number is at the top of his webpage http://www.teamcarr.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/index.html

andy carrs probs your best bet but im desprate and carnt get hold of him.. its just anoying having spec c ra sat there that i carnt drive and its been almost 2 weeks

 

phoned 3 times and left my number... no worries will just have to keep trying

 

try emailing him.

 

Ring me

 

Give Steve Cotton of cotton competition a call, he looks after my type- r and is an ecutek licenced mapper, they do rally prep and specialise in subarus and full on engine rebuilds, very hight quality of work, there situated in garstang near preston in the north west

Thanks Tristan

 

do they come to you as my car wont start??

 

surely you need the AA then first once up and running though try graham aka engine mapper. OS maps £225! top fella as well

 

no its not the AA i need unless they map ecu,s and my other problem is im nowhere near any mappers

 

What year is your car and do you know where it was sourced and are there any after Market mods on her?

Tony

 

55plate spec c type ra with no mods.. yet

 

Ok you can happily run these on shell v power and octane booster, the ecu is good enough to retard the ignition when it needs to, though your also worth getting a phormula ks3 knock sensor (very good bit of kit) even after it's remapped
Is yours a vx reg?

Tony

 

might be a vx think weve got mixed up, the car was fine when i got her just abit slow, so i went to teg/simpson he said he carnt map ecutek so i bought a simtek and got it mapped. so now ive taken the simtek out to go in my track car and put what i thought was the original ecu back in, it turns over but wont fire and the key light is lighting up so i assume he has given me the wrong ecu back, so now my car is just sat there feeling sorry for itself and im dying to drive her again

 

If you have a vx one your ok there is one nasty 55 plate out there that was badly repaired, it has a uk car bumper on it, big give-away.
The ecu should be plug and play, mine will go in yours and it should work, check to see what ecu is in there.

Tony

 

Do you need to swap the cam/ crankshaft sensors ? My knowlege here is flakey so I apologise if I'm not helping any. I thought for the newage the Simtek software dealt with the change......

Shaun

 

give Brian a ring at cams Andrew works with him 01254689994

 

+1

 

You have PM....

 

your joking!!! mines been checked so im ok and yes its a vx think it was on here a while ago, from scotland.. i will go and get the ecu out and have a look

 

i really dont know, thought it was just a case of plugging it back in

 

ive spoke to andy its ok, hes mapping my simtek into my track car which is down at fleetwood getting a new engine etc but dont think he has time to come to me to sort my spec c and im desprate for a car..
