Oh, don't spoil it, this is nearly as good as slagging off others' asking prices for their cars.

I know that. I assume you missed my use of the word GENERIC
And Russ does not have the word Guaranteed in his signature.

Come on... seriously?

This is like the subway foot long sandwich, where it's just a marketing name and is actually only 11 inch.

It's not remotely comparable. As far as I know there is Jamie and now You that have an issue with this, whilst everyone that has purchased the map or had it applied for free by Russ (I know personally of two people) are not moaning, picking holes or being repetitively pedantic over what amounts to an approximation of power from a map that is popular greatly appreciated and written specifically for our cars. So would you like to reveal the real reason for your obsessive objection to the the title 160bhp map?

We never claimed it was as you well know Steve they became known as that after we released them, after members had it dyno'd and those figures were posted that's why it's on my signature. Stop stirring the pot.

Really I suppose the "160" figure should be in inverted commas but right at this moment I can't remember how to alter my user cp to do that as I have better things to do.

One question I will ask is why every time someone enquires about a map both you and Jamie have to jump in and put in your two pennyworth to try and rubbish what we do.

I suggest you change it to the "feels like 200bhp" map as a proper gesture towards those few who always seem to come out of the woodwork to pick up on the point.

Here you go Russ:
  1. In the brown strip menu click on User CP on the far left-hand side.
  2. From the vertical menu on the left-hand side, view the choices under Settings & Options.
  3. Click on Edit signature.
