Get R-Tech'd tomorrow
« on: 30 June 2009, 16:14 »
Well the day has nearly come and time for me to part with alot of cash and have some work done on me car.

After reading all the good reviews from fellow members i cant wait, should be a fun drive home on the M1 tomorrow after having the work done.

Will report back tomorrow with pictures of the work and feedback.

Topher - if your passing mate may aswell pop in, be good to put a face to a name.

indeed, but then its no point me starting to do the belt when the remap is booked in so soon and perhaps finding something goes wrong while doing the belt and cant get hold of any parts.. so i`ll do the belt once the remap is done..  :wink:
maybe the same day..lol

Bit risky IMHO but it's up to you. I'd have the belt done first. It's pointless spending the money on a remap and then having your engine scrapped by the cam belt snapping!
