Personally I would never ever trust a 20 quid remap, there's a reason other places and tuners charge so much more, research and development.

It sounds like its a generic map and not map and not made specifically for your car, and will change parameters on the fly rather then have set fueling boost pressure etc and therefore has not been tested properly at all.

Think this might be a case of buy once buy right, and get a map from a well known tuner, the end result if things to tits up could cost you a lot more than a proper map

thats what i thought haha sounds to good to be true doesn't it
a devise that remaps for pocket money
Oh I believe it. I bet it's good value for money. It'll be assembled by unicorns in a factory in never never land powered by ooffle dust. If you pay an extra two groats the chuckle brothers will come and fit it for you. Assisted by Elvis. Bahaha. It's medication time again...

No way on earth would I ever remap my car like this, I'd never dream of doing it myself anyway. Leave it the professionals who are familiar with the cars and have vast experience with modifying ecus. There's a reason they charge what they do for these things.

Not worth it. You're messing with your engine so take it to a reputable place and have a custom map by someone who knows what they're doing. I would recommend P-Torque.

omg so true and i love them guys so interesting lol
but yes thats what i told someone its just a quick £20 for china man :rofl: :rofl:

First video of theirs I ever watched was "how to tell if your car needs lowering". Next thing I'm out in the car park during my lunch break with my shoe shoved in the wheel arch to measure distance. But yeah, liked when they took the box apart and it just splits and reconnects the same wire without doing anything with it.

like most china man things promising the world unless you pay and put it on a dyno you won't notice the gain or loss lol

up side at least the LED light worked with the switch :rofl:
