rs tuner total cost? ease of use :S



  L-Y Clio 197 F1
looking at options to get the car mapped and seeing as a local tuner isn't really an option unless I fancy a nice 3hr + drive then I thought I'd explore the rs tuner route. Curious to know the total cost of the kit, plus the map (+ any additional costs?). Also clueless of where to get the maps. I understand fastchip.nl sells the actual unit can't see anywhere for maps. I'm sure I've read when i was searching that someone in the trade section of the forum can supply the map? might of read wrong...

And I suppose the most important question - could a complete car novice do it without too much trouble? If its complicated I'd much rather put the car with a professional than bumf something attempting a DIY job.

Buy a second hand locked unit, (circa £90 ish) unlock license £85, map £42 so call that £220 give or take

Map the car

Then sell the unit on (£90)

Total cost £130 ish. Its not bad imo. I'd fully recommend it, did my 197 last winter and it improved the cold behaviour no end. Its pretty simple, you will however need a battery charger connected to the car whilst you do it as the fans kick in whilst its connected.

In the forsale sections here or over on Clio197net :)

Buy the unit first, then you purchase the license and map from the fast chip website
