Thought so.

There's work to be done yet.
The winner had a 6n2. Fresh paint. Recaro CS BBS RS's and generally looked like a 1st place car.

I know what I need to do over the winter months so next year I'll try for the 1st place throphy

6n2s are way to common now, need to get some more nice 9n3s about,

Looking forward to seeing what you've got in store, and hopefully to see it in the flesh at some of next years shows :)

Still having problems with cel coming on after a few hundred miles even after fitting the correct resister as recommended on various VAG sites. Looks like I will have to get her mapped again. R-Tech seem to have a good reputation with 18t engines, although Badger 5 are nearer to me. Are you pleased with the performance and economy of your map and how it was carried out? Thanks for your help.

Very happy with Bills work. He knows what he's doing. I would defo recommend him

And no matter what resistor you put in the cel light will come on. Has to be mapped out.

Great news.

Not sure who mapped your car before or what BHP/Torque figures you were given but just remember one thing "Dyno Lottery" and it's all about how it drives on the road.

Once it's mapped see how it drives and enjoy. :-) Also you can get him to put another aggressive map on like the Revo one you currently have.
