Cheers Stu and Kenny Apart from having to learn how to swim all over again, it was a blinding day!!! I'm never letting Kenny near any of my household electrical goods though as it sounds like they will be stripped apart in a matter of seconds! LOL

I'll say thanks on Nicks behalf as well, although I am sure he will reply himself when he sees this.

PS. Welcome back looked like you had a lovely holiday!

Roflol....
Kenny bought his son a quad yesterday and Lee and i both burst out laughing when 10mins after it being delivered we spotted he had the access panels off the top and was quietly looking around inside to see how it could be modded... we both shouted at once "FFS Kenny, Leave it Alone"

Holiday was better than all expectations.. well pleased, thanks

Look like features - will read them properly later.

Cheers to the guys for the tuner section inclusion for you know who

Even Flippa (IMA) got a mention in this months issue (NOT in the tuners section though, I hasten to add....)

Is that how you map chips? Using a laptop as an Emulator?

I never knew that was how it was done, so I suppose I learnt something

The emulator is plugged into a laptop Rich and then my laptop has total control of the car. There is NO other way to map mate.

Im probably like a lot of other people on here. Know what a chip can do, have an understanding of what it does. But the actual nuts and bolts of the process involved was a mystery. I kinda half had an image of someone sitting at a PC writing coding then just dumping it to a chip and soldering it to the board.

Theres a lot more finesse which wasnt that apparent.

You're faar to clever
