Rick@Unicorn Motor development
« on: 22 February 2013, 18:20 »
I never seem to hear his name mentioned on here which is weird as he
is one of the best ( if not the best ) Vag tuners around.


Has anyone on here used him in the past?

I know of him via the Ford world........



Couple of his Vids,

I've seen his name about on other forums. Seems like a talented bloke from what i've read.

I've been speaking with him over the past few days and he is able to do the same as R-tech.
He also offers the same maps like the Tiv that R-tech do.

He said he was one of the 1st people to offer the switchable maps and  launch control.

I am currently trying to decide on a company to map my LCR, I mentioned I would probably go with R-tech
but that didn't phase him. He still spent time talking and offering advice and said Nick is good at what he does.

R-tech is closer to me but I may well decide to use Rick if I can cope with the extra mileage.
Ive known of Rick from the Ford scene and seem a fair amount of work he has done.

He also mapped a 500+BHP S3 owned by a guy named Andrew who made a few parts on my old Rs.

Both companies are very good so I just need to make a decision on who to spend my money with.

Sounds like a toss of a coin.

If Rtech is closer I'd personally go there  :smiley:
