We have a local lad who engine-rempas, with some pretty bold claims.
45bhp extra, 10mpg more, 60nm of torque you know the sorts.
Now he re-maps not chips it, takes him about an hour, he's done my boss's x5 which he says feels realy different and well, and sure enough his mpg has gone up.
Now the synic in me is rearing his ugly head. The mpg thing could have been altered and the rest is in his head......(you can see i dont believe him)
But have any of you level headed chaps re-mapped there mercs with obvious Fact founded improvements?
Ive seen brabus chips, and there so much more than £200 and him spending an hour in your motor in the car park, is this for a reason that they actualy work.
(ps) i know the theory around chipping and re-mapping/how it suppose to work, just incase.:Oops:
