Re: What a Bargain?

Do some research on the company reddotracing before you go ahead!

Some people have had bad experiances with this company.

Tbh i would never trust any of the ebay chips..... always go with a respectable tuner. Even when you use a proper tuner things can go wrong so id hate to see what these companys failure rate is

Some good advice. Seems they are offering rolling-road remaps rather than just a chip, but if they are dodgy business, best keep away.

Re: What a Bargain?

I had my Fiat Stilo JTD remapped at Reddot in October 07 during a Fiatforum rolling road day. They were very professional and everyone saw good results.
They also tune to your specifications so if you don't want to go all out like i didn't they can adjust the limits they go to. This is the benefit of "live" mapping rather than just uploading a generic map into the ecu.
You get before and after graphs too.

Some comments in http://www.briskoda.net/forums/octav...remap/92001/2/ and http://www.briskoda.net/forums/maint...g-remap/94494/ that are worth reading.

You still have to make your own mind up at the end of the day!
