TDP Wicklow - Mapping

Well if you ask me robbie and the TDP crew are great, i sent my s14 up to him in may 2007 and got an omex fitted, it made 350bhp and never missed a beat and it wasnt that i was taking it easy on the engine:D I drove the ring out of it untill sept 2008 when they put the rb26 into the s14 and that made 600bhp it was scary:eek: he also mapped my new SRX7 and that made 403bhp...i never had a fault with my cars and trust me his dyno readings are accurate, you will see when you drive your car after being mapped

is this the same james deane that made a magical 370-380hp on a gtss:rolleyes:

nope, never said that, you must be thinking of the wrong guy

it must be the other james deane that had his car reviewed a while back on modified motors.
common name alright....

Lad we all know that magazines go on with rubbish, TDP might not have said that. Eoin Ryan had his jzx100 in a mag and they said all this stuff he did and Eoin said it was all bull..

the same fact was claimed more than once.
it made me laugh each time i read it.

with a 20x20 resolution they are easily good enough for 95% of performance cars out there.the reason he's trying to promote motec's and diss power fc's is complete profit margin talk.he knows anyone can pick up power fc's very cheaply these days,but motecs are very rare and pricey.more money for robbie.:rolleyes:
yes,motec ecu's are excellent pieces of equipment,but they are not needed for most of your average drift or track cars.
only reason id buy a good motec ecu would be for a high end drag car that needed launch control and anti lag.
anything else get a power fc.

right for those of you that think power fc's are the doggs they are actually flawed, if you open your eyes long enough to look around and see it, dont get me wrong they are a good ECU for the money and do alot of things the standard ecu cannot, i have even had 2 in 2 different cars the first one was great and never gave any bother, but second one skipped on cruise, sitting at a constant 3k it would start to hold back then drive grand again for a few days, thinking it was just mine i looked into the problem and found that a number of others had the same problem all over the world. (NOT HEAR SAY IT DID ACTUALLY HAPPEN ME!)

thats like going to mc donalds and saying they have the best burgers by far.
even though youve never been to burger king.:rolleyes:

yes i have, ive had cars mapped by different places, 4 different places to be exact and only 1 of which i was happy with, so now im going to someone i have researched and found to be in good capability at the engine im looking to get mapped, so ill let you know how i feel about the map when its done.

wasnt 100% happy.
brought it elsewhere,and dicovered it was running too hot and knocking like a cunt.
and discovered his dyno reads about 15% higher than it should.
he's still new to mapping with a lot to learn yet.
bring it to someone with 20 years experience.
do it once-do it right

and who in this country has 20 years experience??? TDP maybe one of the few that do or near enough anyway.....

yeah because its not the owners that exaggerate thier readings now is it?? my last skyline sold with and dyno'd twice with 300rwhp was up for sale by the latest owner claiming 417bhp having done nothing but ad a carbon bonnet...please think about it....
