Can also do it yourself with an RS Tuner.
Paul at RS Tuning will be able to do it. Google them, based in Leeds.
i know that but i cant be arsed with the hassle but thanks for the heads up!
Less hassle then driving to RS tuning etc..
ok i've just bought an RS Tuner, just had a thought, once i've used it i can sell it on! (cheap remap)
i've done loads of reading up in the past as i had a 182 four years ago but i've just had a quick look and defo still abit rusty!
I plug the RS Tuner in, order liscence of henks website, then what 2 files do i need to take note of?

You'll need to know what ECU software your car runs, chances are it will a 7804. You may need the updated rst file first, then the cal file (which offers the overrun feature).
I would warn you against the overrun without a decat. I would also warn that you will have NO money after running it for a week as it drinks fuel.
PM if you need any files/pointers - not far from you.
hi mate i do have a decat
just waiting on an unlock code from henk. any ideas how long this takes? he emailed me straight back this morning within 15 mins, ordered my unlock code and now still waiting to hear from him.... fyi mate....
do you know what i need, is it possible to download off website?
also dont worry about the 10 DTC's, its because i have an Aftermarket steering wheel and no carbon cannister lol
I may be wrong but you have a 182? so why is it running 172 software and cal??
I thought all 182s run 8000 software and 7802 cal before mapping? then the upgrade OEM software and map brings it to 8200 7804!:S
6100 2A06 is what the 172s run normally
How easy is it actually to use an rs tuner i see peole use them alot on here , i am
Good with computers and stuff but worried il mess my ecu up , id be buyin a tuner new from fast chip , so i take it i wont need any unlock cOdes etc , also do you get a map when you buy a tuner ?
Just been watching 'pops and bangs' remap videos on youtube and I hate them. Sounds crap/stupid and makes you look like an idiot. Anybody who uses it is a r****d.
Ok. But you don't drive a rally car, you drive a Clio worth about 3 grand. Most people think you car is broken. I'll try the video I've just watched.
The problem arises when your car sounds like a rally car whilst you're being given a hard time by a sales rep in a diesel.
It was a round figure, but you've proved my point even more.
If you like it then obviously your going to get one, I just really don't see the point. Pops and bangs from performance/exhaust related changes yes, but not from a generic map.
I'm not disputing that some people like it, alot of people clearly do. I'm just stating I'm not a fan at all. A rally car pops and bangs for a reason, and that reason certainly isn't because of an RS Tuner mapIts exactly the same as Henks performance map, just with added poppings! If it was so silly/sounded s**t i doubt Henk/Fastchip, JMS, Stone Automotive, RS Tuning would offer the map. People do like it, we'll have to agree to disagree, it's just fun and that is the only reason i own this car, as i do not need it for anything else but playing about in.

True, but it makes me prejudge people.
