Default Star Performance

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone has ever dealt with Star Performance before. I bought a Skoda Fabia Vrs a few weeks ago and looking to get it remapped. Just wanted to know if anyone has any past with them or can even recommend to another tuner.

Cheers.

if its a simple chip you want; you'll be better off with Evolution chips http://evolutionchips.co.uk/

They used to have a very fast vRS Fabia as a demo car... you'll likely need an uprated clutch if you map it though, but you could be lucky.

They're website advertises a remap from 130 - 172bhp but no torque figures. I also assume thats a generic remap which I dont want, I'd rather a custom map. By the time its going to be remapped it will have a blueflame decat and full system, so I'm hopeful for about 200bhp and 300 - 310 ft lbs of torque.

I took my S3 there a while back and they seemed very clued up. My mate has also had his S3 through there and I have only ever heard good things.

I had my golf remapped by http://www.r-techpower.co.uk/ after reading lots of people saying how good they are. There after sales service is absolutely unreal, so helpful!

Not close to you mind, but then Im in Cornwall so much the same. They travelled 3/4 of the way to me and met up. Also they are pretty cheap.
Have a read on www.golfgtiforum.co.uk
Ive never seen anyone say a bad word against them.
