Having a bit of a blonde day I think. :embarassed: Just checked the engine block and it is a ARZ.

I was toying with the idea of getting it re-mapped but the car's done 70K and don't really want to put too much pressure on things. Had a bad experience with turbo's blowing up on a BMW once.

70k is absoloutely nothing on these engines mate!

I remapped mine at 85k,  and im running nitrous on mine and its now on 110k !

The turbos are good up to 130k

jwelsh is right, 70k is reasonably low mileage and many people, if not most on here have remapped their cars with more mileage than that.
