Right I'll update this first post as and when the information arrives.
Could people state who they've got their ECU installed/mapped so that others like me can see who knows what they're doing and weigh the difference of price over results. At the moment for every 2 good recommendations I've got for some people I've got 1 bad non-recommendation back.
