Vince12v 20 Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Hi chapperoos, does anyone know if I would benefit from a super chipped ECU on my vr, I'm running 268 cams, 6 branch decat and miltek system, also BMC CDA induction kit Link to post Share on other sites
Woodyman84 3 Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 ud benefit from a remap but i think someone like stealth or AMD would do a better job than superchips Link to post Share on other sites
Ickyketseddie 89 Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 What's a stealth map cost these days roughly? Link to post Share on other sites
Vince12v 20 Posted May 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2013 Ahh that's a shame, I may give stealth a ring today, only thing is, I'm in Southampton and they're 140mile north of me lol Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted May 15, 2013 Report Share Posted May 15, 2013 85 mile each way for me, but I've been going to Vince for 10 years now and wouldn't go anywhere else. Link to post Share on other sites

VR6Pete 1,455 Posted May 15, 2013 Report Share Posted May 15, 2013 Good price, least you know what you are getting at stealth Link to post Share on other sites
Vince12v 20 Posted May 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 I don't know how true this is, but I hear from other people that stealths rollers are about...........optimistic on the power side?? Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted May 16, 2013 Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 It's the old sun system from star performance, We've had countless rolling road days there and other places and the figures are spot on give or take ~1-2 bhp, have rolling road printouts from stealth racing and power station to prove it. I've been going there for 10 years for engine work, maps and the likes, their business is built totally on word of mouth and usually a month lead time before you can get booked in for work, optimistic and fabricated power figure gets you no where in business. Infact, we have a rolling road day there on the 16th June, bring your car along and see what it's pushing out, 24 cars running so far. Link to post Share on other sites
Woodyman84 3 Posted May 16, 2013 Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 I know this rumour has been about for a long time,Tbh it could even be to do with atmospheric pressure, weather conditions.My mk2 16v made 153BHP there stock with only a warm up reg mod an i thought it was a bit madbut it made 149 at amd so it wasnt wrong I have a lot of respect for stealth TBH vince is a great guy Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 I'll let you know how I get on down there on Tuesday To be fair, every company out there have rumours attached to them, don't believe everything you hear Link to post Share on other sites
Lukey. 381 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 I'm looking at the user name, is this a mole hiding in plain sight? Lol Link to post Share on other sites
Woodyman84 3 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 tbh that would be pretty funny, testing our loyalty Link to post Share on other sites
Ickyketseddie 89 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Give us a discount then Vince! Link to post Share on other sites
Vince12v 20 Posted May 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Ha ha ha, that's funny, me a mole!!! I'm just trying to work out for myself who's is going to be best to work on my car!! I don't use garages unless I have too (mot), but I put my hand to any thin I can! So putting my car in someone else's hands is big deal to me!!! Sad I knowI had prices from the phirm via united motorsports @ £360 all inStealth 275+vat, local company IGS in Southampton £350 all inAnd a Portsmouth based firm called JKM £300 +vatI'm guessing these are the average price Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Totally understand. There's a reason I drive 85 miles to get my car worked on, and then 85 miles back home again. Even for trivial jobs.... I have had bad experiences with local garages near me, so tank up and go for a drive to stealth I remember back in the day when we ordered over 30 schrick inlet manifolds and remaps from stealth, was an epic group buy, pretty much still keeping the second hand market for schricks going Link to post Share on other sites
Vince12v 20 Posted May 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 I'd love a schrick inlet to go with my cams, but I'm pushing it wanting 300 notes for a remap lol, if I go spending 800+ on a shiney metal thing ( cause that's all she will notice) my nuts will be in a jar on the top shelf lol Link to post Share on other sites
Woodyman84 3 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 The only people I let work on my car is me and people I know as friends. Ie I know there home address lol. Anything I can't do....I'm driving to stealth Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Seen em as little as 600 these days, but I'm not bothering, 3.68 final drive and my schimmel cams more than out perform a schrick. Are you coming the RR day Vince? Link to post Share on other sites
