I think it was around £250 but I shall check my reciept for you later just to make sure.
It was my boyfriend who took the car, and he couldn't rate them enough! Did a great job with the remap and were generally awesome guys, deffinatly know what they're doing

After reading this, just went out and fitted a new aerial gasket I've had sitting for months.

Nice update

Was thinking of a remap but are there any precautions to take verity?? Anything else i should upgrade dont want to remap and then have my gearbox go lol and also what bhp was your remapped to??

well my cambelts done now but it came within an inch of its life one of the tensioners had broken and was it was just running on the bearing sooooo lucky! also fitted some new plugs and leads .
right im off for a drive in the sun

When I had my belt done I had a choice of belt of gearbox as it was noisy.

I chose belt and the mechanic said another 100 miles and it would of failed as they were cracked badly. I pulled out and did 50 miles and the box went bang!!!

At least you now have piece of mind that it's all done!!!

No not any precautions as such,the car doesn't gain a massive amount of power, so upgrading clutches doesn't really justify the costs, my gearbox has already been replaced (a few years back, by a previous owner) and is fine, changes smooth, and engages fine too.
To be honest I would say get a few other mods just to make it worth while, like exhaust system and a decent closed intake (make sure it's closed other wise heatsoke will ruin your power) I'm mapped at 139.6bhp and it's comparable to Clio 172 cup.
Its alot more easy to drive and the power is noticeably better.
Fuel consumption is a better too, specially with my light footed driving lol
Hope that helps

Finally got myself a BMC fitted it yesturday with a new cold air feed.



Next on the list is to give the bay a clean,paint the rocker cover (possibly just the bits you can see for now),and the manifold heat sheild a coat of satin black.
Since the last post if also had a new radiator and some pressed metal plates off ebay.

Looks very nice mate have you got it feeding from the wing or further down?

its still feeding from the wing like standard,there is a piece of ducting from the end of the aluminium pipe to the wing

Nice man. Makes such a nice sound

looking good!
like the plans satin black heat shields look good.
has your rocker cover's paint been stripped off already? mine really needs to be repainted, but its the stripping the paint part im dreading. so scared of getting nitromours every where

The new aerial base looks sooooooo much better, gonna try and do mine this week now

Loving the red and black theme
