| Hello Just thought I would introduce my self, my name is Gavin and I’m the director of The Derv Doctor LTD. I've been running the company for over 4 years and have been involved in engineering since 1996; my farther has been a diesel engineer since 1971 and has a wealth of real world experience. We have a further 2 full time workshop staff who are main dealer trained and have over 15 years experience. We also have 2 part time staff, an auto electrician who used to work on Cosworth DFV engines and inside some formula 3000 teams. And an ex-VW main dealer technician who now an air con and VW specialist. We provide a larger range of tuning products for most VAG group engines; most popular is the TDi range. As well as some very good conversions for the 1.8 turbo and now the FSi Turbo. We also have full machine shop and fabrication facilities and access to a 1500 bhp Super Flow 800 series chassis dyno for live mapping and full engine balancing equipment. I will be posting some introductory offers on the section in the next few days. Cheers, Gavin

| Yeah it has been a while! Glad to see we have all moved on, Yeah are TDi dump valves do work well. Do do fit alot onto turbo diesel cars, but more on peugeots and astra vans seem popular!!

| Hi Gavin, I spoke to you at the weekend about reversible mapping and you pointed me in the direction of the PPC unit. Did you find out if there's a unit for Fabia VRS? I contacted BSR via their website but when I asked the same question they said what engine is in that car?! Doesn't exactly fill me with confidence. Thanks, Bryan. P.S. Welcome to Briskoda! |
