C32 tuners in the UK?
Hi guys I have read that a C32 can be modded with a pulley and a ECU remap. However, does anyone know who provides this service in the UK? We have upto 98 RON fuel available but generally use 95 RON.

I would prefer a live map rather than a off the shelf map.

What kind of performance increases can I accept?
what does it cost?

Sorry for all the questions

Thanks
Bobby

From one Bobby in the UK to another!!

http://www.dmsautomotive.com will be able to help you out at around £1000 (or at least it was 18 months ago). Expect 385-390bhp.

http://www.kleemann.ltd.uk can do the generic map and pulley. Only one UK dealer though if I remember right. Forget how much it cost - was about £2,500 plus VAT a year or two ago. Expect 400-405bhp.

http://www.birds.uk.com do Carlsson and others - and can do generic map and pulleys. Be prepared though, you need deep pockets - oh and their power claims have a typo in them so don't get too excited!! Expect 400-405bhp.

Finally, try Shell V-Power (or Tesco) 99-RON fuel if you want to spoil her!!

Bobby Dazzler - thanks for your help buddy this fourm is great.

Birds is def over priced they quoted a price of £8,000 + VAT for a stage 1 - soon after which i put the phone down.

And that like you say for a generic map not even a live map.

Thanks again
Bobby
