fair enuff...you have your criteria, etc....But Redline have always been briliiant in setting up all my racing cars and they've done a few of people I know, too, including a fairly wild Escort RS.
I am only aiming to get a baseline figure to compare against...
I'm interested in how much extra power and driveability Jays chip will produce..bearing in mind my car is standard and I use it as an everyday driver. So the end result needs to be driveable first with power gains second.
I know Redline, they are 10mins drive from where I work, so John can do the runs in my lunch breaks...
Never used power engineering is all....
I'm interested in the result without all the bullshit posturing....
My car runs on normal unleaded and I assume (and hope) it will continue to do so.
I have no agenda, either way...If it is good and produces any sort of quantifiable increase in power or torque, I'll say so....If it is a dog to drive and the power is unchanged, you'll all be the first to know....
I contacted Jat after Tourerti posted the thread mentioned in my previous post as I have been interested in having a chip fitted but have been put off by all the bullshit stuff recently....
Obviously I am hoping it is worthwhile as I'm devoting Ԛ£40 in RR fees and a day of my time, plus fuel, to get the job done...But I'm also prepared for the whole affair to be a waste of effort and money...But it will be for Jay, too, and I'm sure, as a businessman, he will not want that!
