I live 5 mins away from AMD but drove for 2 and a bit hours to R-Tech to get my car mapped, most worthwhile 5 hour round trip ever :-)

Would also recommend R-Tech, great guys and an accurate RR readout and realistic figures quoted  :happy2:

I would also look at performance torque as they have been my remapper of choice. If you are local to me Wanstead I.e in the Essex vicinity you are more than welcome to try mine

You might, you might not! I have a Stage 1.5 by R Tech, but it was only when I had my car lowered, plus a few other handling mods, that it started to slip! Plenty of information on here, but the risk you run when you put more power down!
