Thanks everyonesorted the boost problem now a pipe wasnt connected right all good now boosting around 14 psi.on a mission today now to find a cheap boost gauge and holder if anyone has any recomendations?

[Gambit]

Glad you got it sorted mate least it was a simple fix I like them jobs, goes with my mentality 

 

You will get a few recommendations that I'm sure of but I have these that I really like but not the cheapest things in the world.

[Scooby Pete]

For a remap 2 of the best in the scooby world are considered to be

Jolly Green Monster

and Andy Forsest

Although you will get loads of recommendations Simon@JGM and Andy are the top go to guys.

2nd Petes post Scooby clinic I've never used myself for any work so maybe a little unfair to judge but we have had 2 members on here recently that have given bad feedback as to work carried out by them. :(  

[BoozyDave]

I haven't had much done by Scooby clinic so can't comment

But for a remap, Pat is one of the best. He designed the software on aftermarket ECU's, so if he can't map it, no-one can

[scoobyjohn]

Scooby clinic built mine and as for pat he is the man kev and the lads at the clinic top job
