doesn't have to. Just that parts of the cal, ie background settings, have been modified in advance. That can apply to things like fuel target tables, boost limit tables, correction factors etc
Agreed
A lot of custom maps that people pay for are actually very generic and pretty much all done before going anywhere near a car, then checked and minor changes made. Some very expensive "custom" maps I've seen have been the most generic things you'd ever experience
There are good and bad...
I sell and fit a fair few of these. Did one yesterday actually. They fit really well and are nicely made. Fairly quiet, definitely the sensible sporty sounding but grown up choice
lot of work to get a shite ECU with the power of a casio calculator running your engine. Backwards step IMO. Do you a Canems for it, be pretty ideal :)
you're right
Also have to think about the type of injector being used and not just the size. R21 injectors for example would never work as they are low impedence
it would be a belt only (not full kit) replacement job. If it were me I'd do it for a greatly reduced price in the 6 months after a cambelt. I advise most people of this when i give the dephaser pulley option
dont use anything but genuine rear disks and bearings. It's false economy, you'll be having new bearings pressed in within 6 months.
I'm £99 plus postage for "standard" pagid front disks and pads together
just experiment. I'd start semi soft all round, and stiffen the rear gradually until it starts to oversteer, then tweak the front up until it starts to understeer, then soften it a little.
