Ok i really need to get my car mapped.I realise stu does it too far for a start does karl norris do it where is he based.Or is there another person that can do it south west area or close.Many thx Nige

 

Nige, its worth driving on this one, I really would take it to Stu if it was me.
Trailer it up if you wont fancy driving it that far, and if you dont fancy trailering it then just pay someone else to trailer it, on a car like yours, sod cutting corners with who you choose to map it just so its someone local IMHO

 

OK i said apart from stu thx.I do not want to use motorsport devlopments end of.Im not cutting corners was just wondering if theres anyone ive overlooked.And ive heard karl is the best tbh but unsure if he does p8.

 

Yep i'm pretty certain he does P8

he's based in Alfreton, Derbyshire.

 

Yea i just rang him said he wanted the car to have l8 because of the 1000 cc injectors.

 

cool L8 will be better in the long run ( P8 is pretty unreliable i hear )

 

Ive got an RP labs converted L8 for sale, you can take it to ANY competent mapper if you use that as all it requires is software on a normal laptop, it does coilpack and closed loop too.

 

Just out of curiousity, why wouldn't it go back to the same people that mapped it to achieve "603bhp @ 1.8 bar"?

 

It can go back mike it was more outa interest and time also.Ive got a new tbo to go on u see and want it all maped up etc.And id like to visit a track day with friends on the 25th lol

 

Get it mapped up on the new turbo nige and she'll be an absolute flyer....would be good to see you on the trackday on the 25th in the beast, can't imagine there'll be anythin with more power there lol!!!

 

Nigel doesnt like me.

 

Its mainly a distance thing stu if i was closer im sure id be bumming u like the rest do lol

 

What about Turbosystems dont know distance from you but sure Tony can map P8.

 

If id have known that i wouldnt have banned you last year.

Dont think anyones wanting to bum me though... being perhaps the only person who can live map P8 properly isnt really a bummable offence. roflol

 

how far are msd from you, its a 500 mile round trip for me but for mapping i will never use anyone else again, i seriously cannot recommend msd enough, workmanship, advice just there sheer knowledge..

sean

 

its about a 500 mile round trip from him too mate lol

 

LOL i thought bumming was payment for being the only one also would i get a msd banner for the window lol out of interest then stu what sorta costs would be involved im sure others would be interested too.karl wanted 500 then vat on top if any ones interested.

 

why does karl want to change a perfectly good ecu? what benefit is in it for you, the customer? surely there's no reason that the P8 can't handle the large injectors properly? or is it that they will place additional load on what is supposedly the less reliable of the 2 ecu's?

 

This rings a bell. I asked the same question when he charged a customer for swapping out a perfectly usable DTA p8 pro and replacing with L8 and got shot down in flames!

 

Because he cant map p8.????

 

...............just being U is a bummable offence stu...........(not knockin'.....cos i give u big respect)......but u must get sick of ur arse being kissed................................(my opinion)............

 

its like beating adrum that no cunt can hear doug


pete ur a cunt

 

a bit arsh...........................truthfull.......... .....not a cunt

 

Thank fuck for that

 

i agree with the first to

 

Seconded.

 

Live map P8, including retaining the P8s standard closed loop is Ł500 inc vat and if you want all cold running software and driveability sites doing it takes a full week.

 

nige get it up to stus

 

How many times does he have to say he doesnt want to come to me people?

 

Lots of work then didnt realise it was so involved

 

I have a mountune antilag board what would this do and would it be needed?Id like to keep the p8 tbh.

 

Most people dont... Its shocking how fast some people pretend they can map a car. I will elaborate on why it takes so long if anyones interested.

 

and some times it takes longer to fix the other issue the car has than it does to map it!!!

looking at some we have to work on im glad we dont have to drive on road........

 

Im interested

is it to do with cold starts etc, I have a P8 and would like to go GT30/T4 from a T38 (with rest of spec to suit) have ALS already but would want dizzyless enabled, and then mapping for the new turbo.

 

Its just an encryption board and an old fashioned one at that. We wouldnt use it so you could sell it on. Ironically, you could get al;most as much for that and your chip as i would charge you to map it properly.


Only sometimes? You've been working on BMW's again havent you Gary?

The amount of "performance cars "ive refused to drive this year alone is worrying...

 

So Nige, where you taking it to be mapped then?

Karl - Wants you to change to an L8. Of course he does lol

Stu - You dont want to go there for some strange reason. Distance really shouldnt be an issue mate.

Ahmed?

 

distance? i did a 500 mile round trip the other week to get some spark plugs changed

 

Why? - are you nuts!

 

halfords wasn't open, so popped down the road..

 

Alright Jim,

500 miles to change the spark plugs! Surely you were capable of doing it yourself lol
