Hi all,

Thanks in advance

He's told you that so he can charge you an extra fee for the ecu itself and then an extra fee to map it. IME its no better when you look at the spec sheet for each, unless someone can correct me!? Once youve plugged your OFAM ecu in, load your laptop up with tunerstudio and start mapping it yourself, everytime you make a new modification you can re-map your car to suit, and spend quality time on it aswel, mapping different loads and rpms and various boost levels etc rather than just mapping flat out throttle like most tuners would...
Check my sig out m8!

You just need an AFR gauge to get an idea of how the engines fuelling whilst your mapping it.
The OFAM from boostmonkeys plugs into the EFi loom, direct plug and play (other than a vacumn line into the ecu) its £380 and will come with a basemap to get your car started and idling to a degree.
Map it yourself using "tunerstudio" its easy enough to get to grips with.

Is the www.rsbible.co.uk website no longer up? That had a step by step guide using an efi xr3i loom and ofac with no amal valve, frst ecu and MAP. A few searches on google may help. Good luck

Deffo upgrade the management if you're spending.
As for turbo, a hybrid T3 garrett i'd suggest. I highly recommend AET in Wakefield, Andy Nicholls is excellent.
