Default Live map cosworth L8

What's the going rate for a live map these days from the likes of NMS and Motorsport Developements?

Cheaper than 400 quid. They must be poor maps.

But Motec surely must be over a grand+ And then do you have to pay for each map Tweek?

I know stand alone ECUs offer a lot more too as i have had them myself as you know.

Guess it's all personal choice mate

it makes me laugh when people have a full live map done in a few hours, this is not proper live mapping end to end.

The Motec stuff is dear yes the M800 was about 2k but you can keep upgrading and adding stuff which is good i.e i have anti lag and launch control. The thing with the map is in most cases the car is up and running and only a few things have been changed on the engine so it only needs basic adjustment so £400-500 is a lot of money i feel. Also most mappers already have the base maps on files already developed so again they only need to adjust the file to your engine
