    Steves website shows plenty of video footage of a lot of what he's done and figures, i think the proof is there to be seen regardless of his "behind the scene" way of working.

    This guys mapping the last 10years or more and has a FLAWLESS reputation throughout the UK and Europe (that ive found out anyway) Garage-D use him along with Driftworks, yes he must be crap
    Its nothing like that. I am a Trader on Drift Ireland and I am trying to help the members make a educated decision on how a cars is mapped.

    When you have one of this guys Steve's customers/friends come on quoting insane figures for a std EVO 6 you guys set the alarm bells of your selves.

    If you want to make wild claims you need be able to back them up.

    Paul/Polo has already backed up the "claim" by posting video evidence of it a few pages back.....

    Yes I understand your a trader on here & thats your business, but if someone else comes on here offering the same business i do theres not a lot i can do about it, its a public forum this is a discussion.

    Paul/Polo also helped out members on here by providing a lot of educational information about the setup of driftcars etc and steering in which that trader childishly deleted it because it wasn't his product, yet the information was very helpful.

    Mucha much situation really, all very childish in my eyes, as for Steve, Im really looking forward to hearing about his outcome after his first session here.

    Everyone has their own way of mapping and thats thier business, if Steve was a newbe on the block i would understand the caution but of all the digging ive done so far im yet to find anyone with a bad word to say about his work

    He posted a video totally contradicting his std claim. Which should the members believe. Some one who knows about evos telling them in is not possible on a std engine or a video of an very obviously not std engine making 470 bhp claming to be std.

    In fairness im not doubting the mans ability to map........ But that evo wasn't standerd it had a big fuck off shiny manifold wich i say more than likely had a big fuck off turbo connected to it......

    Plus the big hks sticker...... I know its only a sticker but come on he hardly put it on cause its standerd......

    Ive seen the car myself and spoke to the owner of it not so long ago, theres 3videos of the car on the website, the last one it has a 2.2stroker engine in it.

    I personally did not see the car before the stroker kit, im going on what ive been told and read.

    I think at this stage, your going on about it so much, give Steve a ring yourself and settle it direct at the source instead of me being the middle man on a car i did not see back at the time it was done.

    Its all easy to speculate and try put off other competitors by bullshitting them on public forums, its not like these are accusations, regardless and even Polo's SR20 is a prime example of Steve's work on minimal supporting mods.

    Julian Smith & Phil Morrisson surely dont recommend the chap for no reason.

    I say call him and cut out all this bullshit once and for all as its dragging a bit long in the tooth now about this one particular car

    All I am doing is showing the members that some of the claims about the mans power figures are not quite right. I am sure if he is as good as they say he wont be happy with other people quoting bigger figures also.

    Here is the evo i speak of, the 35r was not fitted until part 3 unlike what it says

    My car on stock engine, cams and fuel pressure.

    Second video Polo stated that the big 35r was not fitted in this video. But it clearly was. You can see form the torque graph that the turbo spools late.
