    Yes, have used Greg before for remapping.

    He's very knowledgeable guy and knows what he is doing.

    Would have no hesitation in using him again. Go for it.

    That's re-assuring, hes only about 15 mins away from me so is handy in that sense, do you know does he use generic or customs maps ? and how much he charges for a standard remap (I understand every car will be different) but ball park. Cheers.

    He maps the cars himself so it would be a "custom" map so to speak

    I presume he charges differently depending on the car.

    You're best off just giving him a call :)

    Builds the maps himself and he has a dyno, similar to Joe Power (who I have also used in the past)

    He has had numerous Touring Car Championship wins over the past years racing a Golf GTI which he mapped himself and he also specialises in Turbo rebuilds, so that initially gave me a lot of confidence in that he knows what he's doing.

    He charged me 250 but I have recommended him to a few people who got varying quotes depending on the car.

    Always a good sign when a tradesman practices his trade in his leisure time lol €250 seems reasonable ! thanks for the info ! :)
