No idea mate, every few weeks jr tells me about a different tuner I should go visit to get the mapping sorted. Changes quite regularly now, I really really want my car mapped as local as possible and would depend on what the mapper recommends at the end of the day. Will cross that bridge when I come to it, I'm more concerned about where I'm going to get all the money to buy braided hoses and aeroquip fittings

more word of mouth.. Mattb had Omex on his XE and was very impressed with it.. and motec was because i a lot of the big tuners use it so was more of an assumption

what i would do with picking management is make a list of what i want from it, then work out how much you have to spend on it, i mean willay just said he wont be working on a buget, ok, i can sell you a management system that will cost £2k just for the box!
people need to know what you want to spend. then you can match up what will work for you.

I think Gotech would be perfectly capable of running what steve needs, its just the trip to northampton to have it all mapped etc.. Torque of the devil is just round the corner, and Chris Todd has a very good reputation when it comes to mapping omex

How hard would it be to put a VXR engine in a corsa? It been done? Surely would need custom mounts and all sorts of sensors from the car?

If the car is all track orientated rather than strip - this is the way to go imo.
