If I've learned one thing from owning a LCR..
Don't skimp on a map,go revo,or even bill as he's near you.
Gone are the old days were it was a lot harder to "chip" a car,
Anyone who can work a PC can become a mobile mapper and know sod all
About tuning cars.
Just bash a few keys for 10 mins,charge £150,job done.
I wouldn't have known the fueling wasn't right had it not been for my liquid gauge (AFR),
I knew there was something amiss as it wasn't boosting correctly at first..
Then I started asking questions..
Any mapper that asks YOU how much boost you want should be avoided at all costs.
I will never get some cowboy with a laptop near my ECU again,or any of my mates...

I will be going to badger5 but i haven't been in contact yet, as i can't decide whether to go straight to stage 2 with my LC or just stage 1 and save my monies, and its not really much difference. As the KO3 max's out at 240bho if i'm not wrong?

I was looking at getting a in house OBD II reader so i can keep my eye on the boost and AFR. Was thinking of a Scangauge II though? Are liquid gauge much better, or just look better?

 

[swedey21]

As for maxing out,im no expert but that does sound about right.
As for the reader,i dont know the Scangauge II,
but i do know the liquid is fantastic,first thing i brought,tells me everything i need to know on the fly,and clear codes.
Ideal for a starter,but vag-com is obviously better once you start tweaking..
never the less,i rate the liquid very highly..
