I know a couple of people that have had a map from karl and they drove there and had all mods done why they waited??
He did just what others do and used a base map to start and made it nice..
If you had a custom engine spec that needed mapping from scratch then im sure you would drop it to him and pick it up some days later as you would with stu or other road mappers..this also comes with a much bigger price tag!!
If you can offer someone a good map with more power and a safe afr etc for an hourly rate then what is wrong with that??
The cossie 4i saga was just this..he turned up with a very expensive live road map from tont thinking it had over 400 hp as promised by tony,it had 370 ish!! he was to be fair very un happy and said tony told him he had seen 400 hp and it was spot on..
We say its way rich on boost and gets richer and richer untill of the scale(10.1 lamda .69 fuel)..
Steve said i have a £100 on me..we say ok we will work on it for another hour and get the best we can for you..
The fuelling was then corrected over and over untill we got to the 400 hp mark...
This is the sort of thing we did,we helped people by making thier map better and if we couldnt do this we would start with another base map..
If we built a new engine and used bench dyno with old webber we would find something of similar spec and use that map as a base to start with..
This i can promise you is what a lot of tuners using webber do as i do speak to most of these people and have been around this for like 20 years!!
Chip ,..luke has mapped and altered plenty of maps on webber and i can honestly say other than this one that tony says is bad i dont know of one that has gone wrong so why do you always just love to put him down when it comes to this??
What you believe and what you know about his abilities is two very different things..you do of course have an opinion but its a specualted one at that!!!
