thats the same sort of distance any rollingroad/mapper sort of place is from me, drop it off and train it back! thats wat i was going too do, unfortunatley wat ever management you get some1 has got to map it!! cossie management is old, there are so many uptodate management systems out there, all of them you will need new or modified inlet manifold, crank position sensor trigger wheel, injectors new pump and regulator+fuel rail!

yeah, there is a guy up here who is good with cossie and has loads of experience for them so might just go with the tried and tested cossie route after all its good enough for a 300bhp cossie its good enough for a 200bhp rst.









i hope

you wanna watch pts mate , they took 700 quid from me , and couldnt even find the tps had been wired in reverse , monekys mate , they are ok for mainstream stuff, take a chance if you must , id recomend dingy from here and karl norris motorsport if you want a real job done with an excellent after service and personal touch , also on a side note, paul at pts told me himself that cossie management on escorts is a new thing and not easy to master !!!

yeah ok

its your call at the end of the day , just be carefull

SO after spending X amount of money on a Management system that not alot of people use. HOW ARE YOU GOING TO FIT?????

Who is going to mapp it?

Weber (Cosworth) management has been used for many years and over developed to be able to do many things that even NEW management systems still cant do! WRC cars used weber for years running 300+bhp as did the rally cars from that time. Im sure it will be just fine for your little FWD engine.

Combi Chris, If your prefered Tunner can map a car without removing the chip from the ECU???? I think you will find it has had nothing changed in the chip! It was a std cossie chip when i see it lets hope you didnt get charged for it, cos that would be a piss take
