if you hand over money then i would of thought so - beware tho, its not a cheap game, but if you have a cell and an engine dyno already, you know how expensive it can get

What is the company name ???

I am surprised that a company that owns an engine dyno cannot map engines !!!!

There are many tuners around but rarely do they travel to different places without
lots of advanced warning and big cash !!!

Most charge Ł350-Ł400 per day + expenses + vat

any 2litre 4pot turbo map will get it started surely, they even give you a ignition map free and the fuel should be self-ish mapping using wideband ?

Actually they are TOTALLY different skills phil, making an ECU and mapping them, just like the engineers who make schumachers car cant drive it as well as he can, in fact some of them are probably completely shite drivers.

Lee, i was only joking mate, i'll probably knock my base map up from scratch myself TBH and then get the fuelling close with my wideband as it has logging, but i will then take it to Stu to finnish the fuel map off for me and sort the ignition timing properly, if he can bare to have a mini on the rollers, lol

Phil, I can and do map engines !!!

I had to learn in order to design an ecu.
Also, I used to design the software that allows others to remap weber ecu's.

I choose NOT to do mapping comercially except for close friends as I do not
want the headache or responsibility of other peoples cars.

However, I do not have a wide range of mapping experience such as people like Stu, Mark Shead, Karl etc...

I so much prefer the electronics/software side of the business.
