| Re: Remap and dyno day March 2012 Birmingham interest check? Great idea, but March is a bit early for me as I won't have the supercharger fitted by then.
What sort of prices are on offer? Are we talking custom maps or generic ones?

This is all carried out in a dyno cell, on one of the highest spec Dyno's in Europe. |

It is open to anyone who wishes to book, so any forum members can book a friend in for example. |

I'll be starting with a 3.6 inch pulley developing around 8psi. I will probably upgrade to a 3.4 or 3.2 inch pulley at some point as well. This means new injectors, meth injection and a completely new custom map.
The reason i'm waiting to fit it is because I don't want to fit without guages. I'm planning AEM air fuel ratio and boost guages. I also want an LSD and I'll be upgrading the clutch and flywheel to an M3 clutch and lightened flywheel. It should be awesome when it's fully built, but tbh I could have just bought an M3! |

Our main file writter Jason was flown out to America earlier this year to help tune as remap a Lamborghini with a custom engine and turbos fitted. It dyno'd at 2000BHP!!! So this is some of the clever stuff that goes on.
We have just had a New dyno fitted that makes it the highest Spec in Europe. Mustang 3000BhP AWD Dyno.
For your BMW we would run it on the dyno and tune it to perfection, and nothing less  . |

No inflated or in accurate results
Worth every penny IMHO. |
