Never heard of them myself. But if you want personal dealings/recommendation i'm running a "more-bhp" map on my 1.8t... and is perfect! more-bhp (J) posts on here and has done quite of the members cars. I'm sure he does Diesel tuning too... He spoke to my mate about his PD130 Ibiza, and think he mentioned he does travel also.
If you want to see some feedback check this - http://www.uk-polos.net/view ... 43&t=39238
He's based in Cheshire - I'm hopefully visiting him for Stage2 next week (if all goes well) :D

same price ! but the rpm solutions was offering up to 45bhp and 75ilbs torque!

its a pain as i have heard loads of horror stories about big and small companies so dunno who to trust !

that guys website looks professional fair play will defo keep him in mind! and the 400 mile round journey will be cheap in the derv ha ha !

if he does travel though thats awesome but doubt he would trvel to wales???
