nick,
I'v just bought a dax rush kit car ( bit like a westfield 7 ) and it's got a cossy lump in it.
I'm just looking for some one to stick it on a rolling road see what state it's in then give it back to me with around 300bhp if you know what i mean, there is a company in Hull called pioneer but i'v heard some horror stories about them

Yeah i have heard that pioneer are a bit but i have never delt with them. What state of tune is the car now ? standard, stage 1 etc ? To get 300 bhp it needs to have green injectors 3 bar map sensor and a new board in the ecu . If you aint got that you can buy it next day from nost cossie tuners ( i recomend woodford garage to service and gives good advice) all that only takes a couple of hours to fit

Yeah well lane are ok but no point in paying there labour charges when i can come and do it at you house would be a lot cheaper . Would be a good idea to get them to just give it a quick rolling road session just to check the fueling is ok. That wont cost to much.

If you get the parts from woodford garage i will be happy to fit them for you mate. You will need to know what ecu your car has. Plus it will be more like 330 bhp
Has your car got a boost gauge ? if not its best to get one so you know whats going on. But i do have a spare to use so i can set the boost up.

If you dont want to go to the expense of all that ypu could just go for a stage 1 chip thats less than half the price of new injectors/map sensor etc but all the poeple i have done that for in the past have soon got board of that and got the stage 2 kit so ended up costing more cash.(second hand chips dont realy sell for much either)
