Me too, just ordered the dog bone :happy2: 1st mod for me then!!
As i can't afford a remap yet i will get the other bits ready for when i do IE this, dump valve, brakes etc.
Why had SC been given so much bad press in the past? On "the other" site, i can remember reading a single post that said they were any good but no reasons were given..... Seems like a great product with top after sales service :happy2:

Sensible way of doing it Ben! TBH I never bought into the negative crap that was spouted and went by recomendations from people who had the product and knew what they were talking about. One of the major reasons they were slated is because they aren't exclusivley a VAG tuner, but that makes no odds to me! :wink: And if anything means they have more resource and financial backup. :happy2:

I was going to get the APR remap done by Tuningwerkes for my Ed 30 .... and I am sure I would have been more than happy as they have a great reputation - but having used Superchips on 3 cars a few years back I thought I would speak to them and see if they could turn me away from APR or Revo.
A brief email 'conversation' with Michael Alvey-Anderson got straightforward and clear replies which convinced me they were worth another go. Because of my concerns they offered to install the map and do before and after rolling road runs for free ..... I took them up on this and, as I have stated here and on the 'other' sites I am very happy again with their product. Their aftersales is great. I have been on the phone asking stupid questions and they answered them all.
I still can't make my mind up between their new powerful map for my car or the previous less torque orientated version - Superchips answer has been to supply me with both maps so I can change them myself using the Bluefin device. Cost - nothing! Top people ....

i like the new more powerfull map, i had the revised (the nov 08 one, and i prefered the one it came with) lower power one on previously and it felt too slow lower down and the old traffic light grand prix wasnt much fun, the power just wasnt there imo, which is fine when its wet and icy etc but when the summer comes your stuck with the lack of power ?!!!, now i just use decent throttle control and its all fine, not had a single issue TBH, and like the extra power that i decide if i use or not
wigit:
having never had a car remapped going throug pros and cons has been a struggle, apart from on here i read through a great thread on tyremsoke (not many worth reading) that a certain Red Robin alos contributed on was a great read on the differences between the various companies etc etc, got to be honest superchips been great with my enquiries on the roc, sent me their developments maps and been agreed to tell me when ready, think you have to define pros and cons as differences which suit tastes better
