Ginge, Stu is testing the update as we speak

Superchips and Grove can do it but will require a mortgage first

Your taking the pi$$ surely?
For the money you pay, when i live map it, if it doesnt drive cold the same as it does hot, i wont bloody give it you back unless its an agreed FAULT that you dont want us to fix. Maybe it wont equal a TDi on fuel economy, but it WILL be as close to a standard car's fuel economy as technologically possible with the equiptment you provide. Thats what a live map is all about for gods sake, making em fast is childs play, its making them civilised is MUCH HARDER.

What on earth did you think you would actually get for your live mapping money?

stu on a VERY serious note here mate when ever i type a post the ONLY reply i ever get off you is questioning things i say or belittle a comment i make for what ever reason, NEVER have they actually been a reply to my original posts, now i dont know if ive done anything to fuck you off or what ever but i really aint feeling these vibes that well


my post was a piss take obviously FFS, i would have thought being as im a customer of yours ALREADY you would have understood what i was asking

now as a customer of yours who has a chip and set up and i also recomend people to you ( hell i even made the trip with one person i know and its not like your local) i really dont understand the reason for it


anyone else types a post and then you reply, i type a post and my reply AINT what i asked and just generally as if your talking to some youth from a estate

this post is a good example, whats the title on it, you reply is just a disection of me having a laugh in a reply saying that if i was to pay more than 600 quid on a live map then i would expect it to be done to a extremly high standard where there is no problems

now i know what you charge for mapping and OBVIOUSLY you would be the FIRST choice unless there wa a time issue OR the car wasnt finished and i just wanted it running ect whilst i decide where i want to go

the other point in the post is just for a reference of who else does it that im not aware of so when anyone who ive helped on a ofab conversion ask then i can say the options


seriously if theres something ive done to offend of give you the arsehole then just either call me or PM me, im not a small boy who gets the hump and tbh it takes alot before i actually reply or get pissed off, even longer if its someone i respect as tbh i usually am the clown of the group im in anyway so as such i dont take offence at things

but thank you for the latest contribution to a thread of mine, i hope the others may be a little more constructive as any advice would be nice in situations i may ask as tbh these days all i get on this site is bollox when i ask questions on any post

I am confused as to why you think that?

Because your a customer of mine does that mean i now have to agree with you on all things and back you up or you think im having a dig??

I just disagree on some things and say so, nothing more personal than that Ginge i assure you..

The ABS removal:My comments were at everyone who thinks they are better than ABS.

The OCD:
You called the guy and the specialists liars. I know someone VERY dear to me with OCD and its not nice.

This topic:
You saying for £600 id want a proper job doing suggested to me that you expected a sub standard job for any less than £600.

Look at things from other peoples point of view for a change instead of taking things bloody personally.

stu the point was you never actually reply to the post whats been asked though and just seem to extract parts

being a customer dont in anyway at all mean you shoudl agree and ive never stated that

my comments on the OCD was based on that was way over playing at it, unless you know someone THAT bad i personaly thought it was rather extreme as ive never heard of any cases like that, usually there on a smaller scale from what ive known, if that was offensive then why not just say it, i i offend ANYONE i will more than happy remove such comments, dont mean i will not think things others dont like but it will remind me that not all others find the comments on a acceptable level

the comment on 600 quid plus was to say it should be a very very class job but then ive explained that one before

the comment on ABS was for advice on a idea i had due to mine never working and having another car without it, to me it seemed ore logical removing it rather than keeping it if there was a problem with it considering the techs at work may not beable to fully fault find the system and incase the problem could not be found then as the engine was out was a perfect time to remove the ABS, did that not sound like a idea that made some sort of sence and i felt it was looked upon as if others assumed i was bodging my own car that carrys my child in it ,

now forgive me if im a little off beat on it but tbh the way that i feel on here with some people who i dont even know having a dig im just now thinking that others SERIOUSLY think im some bodge uo merchant who gives shite advice based on reading some car mag quoting bollox to sell products


now even though some of my ideas DO go against the grain of most people whos idea of being moding a car is looking under the bonnet of anotehr memebers car i dont like the attitude that people who dont understand or have even tested it have to comment on things ive made work that "shouldnt"

NOW my last and more serious point i need to get info on is when will the coil packs be ready to sell and available for me to send my ecu ( sorry was trying to lighten the mood as i dont wanna argue with people when im on here to chill)


but im serious about the coil pack and are they any other functions that i enquired abotu available to be done

ginge, i dont know whether stu can map ofab or not but what i do know is that whatever he does map it is 100% right when you get it back. that is to say no cold start problems, no hesitancies anywhere no stuttering and superb fuel economy whether its on closed loop or not. oh! and no fookin about at mot time because the emissions will be legal or he wont give it you back till they are.

now i read your post ginger and tbh i thought you was having a dig
now even though i haven't used stu to tune my own car ,i was MOST IMPRESED with stu's work and if it wasn't that i use karl the only other person i would use would be stu, money no object and as far as i know stu is cheap for what he does and i mean CHEAP
again apart from karl i dont know anyone who would gt out there way s much to help out
so maybe its a case of re-wording your post

Stu- just charge him a grand for it, he seems to think he will get a better map then

With an atitude like that Ginge youd get on well with the Skyline lot

"Well these two companies sell idential products, but this one told me they are better and charge three times as much, so im going with them"

how can ANYTHING i wrote be a dig at stu

FFS i have a chip of his in my car, my first choice of EVER getting a car set up has been with him and anyone i know or even meet the first person i mention and direct em to is stu

i REALLY dont get the dig part in this, my comments was based on stu's reply to mine about asking who ELSE maps ofab

ive had god knows how much advice off kenny and hes always taken the time to listen and help, i must admit im not always on the phone to him as there very busy people and at the moment its all ideas and forward planning in any car im working on

even rewording it is pointless as if stu ever thought thats what i ment and assumed it was aimed at him then thats offensive to me, how would you feel if you asked about erst tuning ect on a post so as not to bother karl as you are awares hes busy and you are just having a general idea and thats the responce you got

then all the other ideas you got the same responce too


now fr the totally stupid and crack head members reading this i would just like to say that i am not having a dig at MSD, i would have to be a cunt to have a dig about mapping yet also on the same basis drive over 250miles to get him to supply AND fit a chip aswell as doing the same thing to a person i know who had a issue with his car and sugest trying stu and he will beable to find the problem ( and which he did as i drove that car half the way back too and got told to slowdown, cant tell me i dont trust his maps if im willing to do that really )

my comments was based that the replies i get from stu are nothing but talking down to me and not once lately has he replied to what was asked or gave any positive responce, instead it was "dont do it,if you do your a idiot" or even the most cheeky line to a tongue and cheek comment i made about cossie reliability was " you dont have talk shit at times"

tell me thats the responce you expect him to give to anyone else

"Well these two companies sell idential products, but this one told me they are better and charge three times as much, so im going with them"

see this is a classic example of what im talking about


the question was who does mapping, the reference to price was cause i fucking hate it when people reply " i would say peter pans power punch pintos" but there pricy " type replies

on this forum theres help to people who others wanna help, another dares to ask a question and then they open the shed and let the band wagon out
for all members to climb aboard


im really not a idiot like jim who now thinks his cars the bollox as it wasnt done by him and cause the others dont work on there car then thats the way to be adn if not then you are bodging it cause thats what he was like

anything i stick on my car is for a reason, i ask questions about it and expect people like steve adn pon to obviously have a dig and claim i talk shit or what ever in a attempt to make there lifes feel more important or what ever the reason is


but the fact of the matter is that i only do things i feel i can do, if its not done right then i admit and i will also post my findings rather than hide from the truth and get a tuner to fix the fuck ups


hell for a moron ive converted 2 cars to efi management, convert a MFI engine to EFI spec spending no more than 50 quid and that car IS STILL RUNNING !!!!, ive helped to fault find on peoples cars and also with help speced a erst engine with all the proper toys that i managed to sell on and get enough cash to buy my cossie outright, dont sound like that was a bodged engine to me

thats not even talking about managing to remove a cossie engine and sort out all the little things with nothing but the help of 2 close mates to remove the block

i do feel that for the things i have done alot of people forget and instead feel that cause i play the fool and reply as how i think means im a idiot cause i dont mind playing the fool
