chippeduk mate

has anybody had an ibiza tdi chipped / mapped by this company?

what were the gains achieved?

 

[simon34]

dont think anyone else has on here i think one of the irish guys has had his done by the irish branch i only found out about tem from the reviews on bmw land forum and then taking a mates 320d there

i would tread very carefully guys the reason Revo/JBS ect etc arent cheap is probably beacause they've developed the maps over years worth of tunning experience!!

The idea of plug n play remap are crazy.....

I know some of u guys are only looking to spend a certain amount which is understandable, but i'd go wiv some1 that has proven experience..

imo

Have provisionaly booked it in for the 23rd march as i will be passing that way but am hoping i will have time to get it done sooner if posible
i do agree with bunnin about sticking with experiance but just because a company is not well known in seat circles shouldnt exclude them but that is why i went to see them do there stuff

 

[m0rk]

better known in some circles than anything off ebay tho

I've got mine done by chippedUK. I had my old Golf done by them as well.

Very pleased with both the remap and the service - Jayson knows his stuff and has done loads of VAG 130PD lumps. See Uk-mkivs.net for details

wouldnt let your mate do the remap unless you have the money to repair what he blows up. as said before ebay is a money grabbing scam most the time!

 

[P-torque.co.uk]

These Ebay tools and CD's are everywhere.

We offer a repair service for guys who have used these tools and files

If you let you mate touch the car, we can offer an ECU repair for £400

....go to a pro tuner

Thanks everyone, didn't expect such a response and am happy to have the information.

Gonna have to save some more pennies and get it done propoerly because:-
1) Dont want to replace the ECU.
2) Dont want to replace the Clutch and therefore would need to limit the Torque of the remap.
3) I want a warranty with my remap in case things do go bang.
4) And I am going to tell the Insurance company which will cost.

 

[air121005]

insurance increase????

with regard to telling the insurance about a remap, does any body know how much of an increase this adds to premiums ?

 

[Bunnin]

I think it depends entirely who ur with, and ur insurance background.

Some will charge you just an admin fee to change your details so between £30 - £60

Other will bump it up because they feel your more of a risk. so between £100 - £200
