Remap works well - was done by Safe & Sound in Leeds!

So much better to drive and the power is available in the right places.

Would recommend to everyone

You can enable it from the parameter menu called FRM.

Hi Scott, lovely car. Tell me, what figure are you getting for torque thanks to the remap and how is your mpg as a result? Happy Christmas, Matt

Unfortunately the facility to get on a rolling road wasn't available.

I'm hoping at some point in the new year to get onto a rolling road so i know the figures. Sorry i can't help anymore than that

i'd say so yes.

I still need to remove my EML which is only on because i've removed my EGR valve, to which i should have had a mapped out when i had my remap but i forgot to mention it.

So i need to get my EGR mapped out which i'm doing in the new year.
