a chip is an "off the shelf" map (ie it was created on a standard car)

where as a "remap" is tailored to your specific car, so if you have other engine moddifications, these will be mapped into the "system"

where as an "off the shelf" chip wont have the correct fueling setup for say an aftermarket airfilter


hope thats simple enough to understand!!! LOL

i take it a re-map is double the price too?

 

[Fred@BTM]

erm, a super chip remap is about £350 odd

a chip from them is about £250odd

speak to Geoff on here, he works for them

If your in the East Midlands, give Hillpower a call. He does both chips and remaps.

If your in the north west you should also consider MotorSport Developments in Blackpool. http://www.remapping.co.ukwww.remapping.co.uk
