yer mate been offered one for silly money with a custom loom and everything was thinking of going cosworth management or megasquirt

still want your loom tho i have sort of given up with the efi option(for today might change my mind again tomorrow) as the person who first attempted it totally butchered the loom and its causing all sorts of problems

yer it runs but it needs attention on a few bite eg
oil pressure light
water temp gauge
fuel gauge
rear light
fuel pump relay etc

it would just be easier to wire in a new s1 loom than repair the butchered one i have lol

what did you think of them how easy were they to map

and is all the infomation stored so you can take the box out and plug it into a desktop pc or do you have to have a laptop to do it

Easy is a relative word - like any mapping session it's time consuming. The cars ive done run very well indeedm but with the risk of sounding like a chump, i really know what i'm doing with it, and engines in general

I have seen cars that have spent £500 on mapping come to me, and they have been astonishingly horrible to drive...
