do you really think that a remap is going to make the belt more likely to snap?.
i will be picking up the timing belt kit this week, i may even go for it before the remap, but i dont want the car to be a non runnner before it gets done, its already booked in. it will get done, dont worry about that.

well day started off real well and kept getting better. Arrive at R-tech around 11.45 this morning and greeted by Ben (good to meet ya), anyway started cracking on removing old exhaust and fitting new Milltek Cat back & R-tech 3" downpipe and De-Cat, whilst this was being done Nick came back and converted the rear end to a NickStyle Anni bumper ( Good work), once this was done new forge 007p was fitted and then on with the first map. Took it for a test drive and was instant improvement, came back tried out another map and woooohhooooo car pulls real well. Car then went on the rollers and managed 197bhp  :evil: and still have Pipercross Air Filter, Forge TIP and new spark plugs to fit. So all in all Top job Nick & Ben, highly recommended.

Downside to the day, left R-tech around 5.15pm got part way up the m1 to find it was closed between junction 25 & 26 cos of an overturned lorry, so was stuck in traffic for about 2 hours in 28 degree heat and to make things worse the motorway wombles didnt have a clue how to set up a proper diversion, but luckily with me being male i had good sense of direction and finally got back onto the M1 but then had 15 miles of driving at 50mph due to average speed camera's  :angry:

so eventually got home at 9.30pm, but it was worth it.

CHEERS NICK & BEN  :grin:
