I do find it strainge people recomending an allegedly faulty product 
I also find it strainge when people shout loudly about a product that rarely makes the numbers they claim.
Sure, they may make higher numbers than other re-maps...but more often than not, they aren't even close to the claimed outputs.
Sometimes I wonder why people remap...is it to put big numbers in their signature, or to make their car quicker on the road?
The two are not the same.
People are too hung up on the big 'peak' BHP numbers so they can brag about it to their mates down the pub. They don't look at the areas on the rolling road graphs showing the average BHP.
What's the point in having say 300bhp / 300lbs ft torque at 3,500rpm which by the time you hit the upper rev range is down to around 200bhp / 200lbs ft torque?
Far better to have 250bhp / 250lbs ft torque from 3,500rpm right to the redline as this will give you greater 'average BHP'. After being in several mapped cars (my own MK4 included) makes it easily the quicker car than the one with the big BHP output.
'Average BHP' makes for a much smoother, drivable and ultimately the quicker car on the road
