After months of working on my car it's going on the road next Monday

I will send you a PM mate... Mention that you have spoken to Pete who had is ZT-T done today... Hopefully he will do you a deal

He does do Mobile visits as well, but this obviously effects cost... Might get a ride in his Audi RS4 though!!!

If anyone else wants his details then drop me a PM... All I ask is that you mention me when calling... I want to get freindly with this guy as it could benefit us all in the long run ?

Thanks for that Pete, I will give him a call on Monday morning and hopefully my first run out in the ZT will include a remap

. Northampton is only about 1 1/2 hours away.

Yes... I have

still playing with synergy 2 settings... and need to get it on a rolling road...

Oh and fix the oil leak and handbrake... then get it through an mot!

Did you get the re-map done first and then the synergy 2

or doesn't matter..And do you know if the gearbox and final drive can cope with all the torque.

Remap first, then new clutch, then peisburg maf and synergy 2.

No issues with gearbox or final drive at the moment! Been running this way for 4 or 5 months...

I believe some have got these cars up to about 200 bhp, but at that point the clutch does slip. I doubt the rest of the car will have a problem though.

is a remap the same as an x-power upgrade ???

Yes mate... The X power upgrade was MG's own remap for the 116 BHP that took it to around 131 BHP

Thes map just takes it up another level... Usually around 156-160 BHP

~185 BHP seems to be the limit.

No.

IF he will do it for £99, and he does more than just an "off-the-shelf" map download, and theres some dyno-proven results I would be *very* interested!

Yeah from what ive seen thats about it before problems arise. Still not bad and makes the car very much able to handle the more modern diesels.
