This is a differnet company brought out by TDi, dont think they have a huge amount to do with it, the TDi north run Hondas pretty well by all accounts

Maybe Dennis can comment but he is probably really busy right now

Again, this is the South TDi NOT the North Tdi

Different people run differently lets not tarnish all with the same brush

Stay well clear

Mates supercharged civic type-r went in for a re-map and came out 120bhp down. The timing chain was 3 teeth out, was lucky the engine wasnt trashed.
