My 2003 LCR210 :) Electronic boost gauge in, also led stop/tail bulbs. :)

So found out I did a proper newbie **** up and ordered the wrong pin location bases for the indicator led's! What a tw@t! :lol:

Thanks mate, still needs a bit more buffing before I'm happy!

Already sorting the send back for the led's. :)
 
Well, been chatting to a company called KEE automotive today about a remap, they've quoted me £199 inc VAT to get me to about 250bhp.

Sounds OK to me, anyone got any experience with them?

Never heard of them before mate. You can squeeze more from a stage one tbh, it might make more but defo do research 1st as I cannot remember seeing that name on here. I might be blind though...

You could get an AmD (I see your located in Braintree) or a REVO from them for £299. Proven maps to give very good gains.

http://www.kauto.co.uk/ Is the site I've been looking at, Kevin there seems to know what he's on about.

Was thinking AMD originally, however, got to be honest, at £199 inc. VAT seems like a good deal. I'm going to see if I can find anyone that's been to him for a remap, either here or elsewhere. :blink:

From the emails that have been pinging back and forth between me and him, he reckons with the car as is (Forge recirc and pipercross panel filter) I should see 250bhp as I've said with 265 ft/lbs of torque. :funk:

I wonder if once I eventually get my exhaust system, decat and cone filter on the car that would pull me up to 265/275 which is what I see most stage one cars at? :headhurt:

Not sure really, I'm new to VAG and turbo tuning so will take all advice! :) :help:
 
power seems just about rite for a stage 1 on a standard LCR...and like you say with the extra bits pushing the power up a little,

soooooooooo when is it booked in dude!! lol

also have you looked at P-Torque!! there stage one is £250.... *if i remember*

As soon as I have the cash Rich!

I'm thinking a pay day treat. :) :funk: For £199 I'm thinking cheap as chips AND on my doorstep! :clap:
 
Just remember most things are cheap for a reason, buy cheap buy twice mate
 
Yeah, I see your point Brad. It does seem a little cheap compared to anywhere else. Thats why I want to do some digging first before spending cash.

I asked what I'm getting for my money and basically, he downloads my original map from the ECU, sends it to a "colleague" and within an hour or two, I have a new map built around the readings and values my car has been logging.

I get the feeling he's a franchise for someone but doesn't want to name them, either that or this "colleague" works at a remap firm and is on a back hander.

His website seems OK, and the guy doesn't seem like a flash in the pan type company, and apparently the map is guaranteed for life. Whatever that means!
