    Recommended Remaps (LEGIT) for under £250?

    It does make me laugh that people see price as a front for quality. i wont name any business but ive seen a £450 remap look the same quality as the files bought on the ebay dvds. A £250 remap solved all issues, performed better and without smoke. will likely get shot down here, but it makes me...

    1.8T Turbo Choice - Read a lot already, after opinions

    must admit i was looking fir the same info, cant believe 20 years on people are still selling turbo kits for 2k+ for these engines and the used market seems to be non existent unless you sit pressing F5 on ebay lol if you go through the hastle of fitting rods then you may as well do other...

    A4 2.0 tdi 190 2016 remapping

    some great advice from bobby there tbh, although i dont like the term flash and dash, just because the person doing the flashing cant answer the questions above doesnt mean the 'generic file supplier' doesnt :) £150 will typically get you a generic remap (a known set of tuning changes to...

    take celtics figures with a pinch of salt, they're a big franchise tuning company, with any big franchise (im sure ill offend some now :P) they will have dealers local to you, this could be a spotty teenager that knows nothing but just does the flashing of the ecu and takes a cut the big...

    Which mods do insurance companies need to be notified off?

    i think its a grey area, insurance companies 'should be' notified of all mods so that you can feel as ease about whether you're covered or not. however will an insurance company start pulling the ecu map data and then comparing it to the standard factory data to see if a crashed vehicle has been...

    Premium unleaded vs normal unleaded

    imo unless your car is tuned (whether thats from factory ie a sports version / high end performance vehicle or remapped) then running non premium prob wont make any noticeable difference why? because from factory they have to be able to run on all qualities on pump petrol / diesel. If you're...
