It sounds like i will get mine remaped again as i am impressed by the torque, i got mine done at RS tuner in Leeds, does anybody think getting MWM to do it is worth it, wouldn't mind the extra 10bhp and do you think it would be a better bet as i used the the guys involved with the group buy and...
My cars peak torque is now at about 155ftlb 2600rpm and stays pretty flat all the way to 6000rpm and never drops below about 140 then it tails of gradually to 7500rpm where it produces 125. My biggest gripe is the power before the remap 172.9 with decat and Rs2 and then 180.8 after remap, Tom...
i have the same system and before remap you wont really notice the difference its only a couple of hp it should just rev more cleanly a remap will give you an extra 10hp or so and even then its not really enough to make a massive difference but it will make the car more responsive and you will...
i have a scorpian rs192 decat mainly because i got a jms rs2 fitted with remap, its not much louder just a little bit more meaty sounding but the 192 is one of the quieter sounding systems, its a bit more boomy at motorway speeds but i have driven it from portsmouth to glasgow and not really...
does anyone have any more news on the JMS RS2, i have one fitted, are people still having problems mine's only putting out 180bhp instead off the 190ish promised, spoke to an rs tuner and he said he could have got 180 with a remap which is exactly what he did with his brothers car and it was...
Hi Tim, i would be interested as i am considering sorn on my trophy as the tax is due and i want to do some work to it. Got a 206 turbo diesel which i may run over the winter, not as much fun but a lot cheaper to run when you have been made redundant! I live in Portsmouth so not that far away...
I live on the south coast and we did have some fairly harsh weather at one point but if i lived in my native Scotland i would not hesitate to have a set of winter and summer tyres, get some cheap 15 inch alloys for the winter and you can use them for track days as the tyres are much cheaper...
Actually reminds me why i put new ps3 on the front, coming up to a four way junction last winter at under 10mph because of the conditions, was letting the engine do the braking but i knew i would have had to kiss the brakes, so giving myself plenty time i touched the brakes, got abs right...
I got mine done at Rentech was about 900 inc. dephaser which had some play in it so got it done on the safeside, as i remember most of the cost was parts i think he charged 4 hours labour at 50 an hour, oh and i got the air con regassed as well, made a difference when the weather got really hot...
Great congrats on the new addition and i mean the baby unless its a GT3 4.0
You wont get more fun for the money again, this truly is the last of the breed of original hot hatches and with a few simple mods it's unbelievable value on three wheels.
Good they havent went bust but i think tom has a lot of angry people after him, James is great will always respond to calls and is happy to give out advice, well Tom is responsible for correcting any problems i think a few people will want to talk in person his name is getting like mud and if he...
My trophy is only putting out 180 with decat and rs remap, not happy power tails off missing the 190 as advertised in the original literature, a lot of money for not much gain, torque curve is down on the map as published, the inlet has been shortented by a third causing some of the problems...
I would take them as well there is a bit of graining on what i presume is the fronts an does the difference in offset have no difference? cash waiting.
trackday wheel/tyres, geo setup, harnesses and try and sort out the seat height/driving position. If any left a trackday and fuel. Unfortunately a grand aint really enough for the cocaine and hooker option [-o<
Oh and i would get my wheel retrimmed.
you could consider something like a ford ranger double cab, room for five, large load bed which you can get a hardtop for. Not the most sophisticated vehicles but virtually indestruckable. We have run 5 or so in our business and the two door ones have a one tonne payload and were always fully...
Is Tom or James still doing any work from there old workshop. If its under new management are they finishing off the outstanding work thats owed to people. I would like to speak ti Tom to sort out the outstanding work but cant get him. Am getting very pissed off :evil:
Anyone else not getting the promised figures and had bad service to the point of owing us money. PM message me to discuss where to go next, leave me contact details, i am seriousely considering a refund if i cant get the power increase, my car has been meticulousely maintained, serviced every...
Did you get your money back? Mines just had the remap and was producing 172.9 hp before with the rs2 and 180 after. Peak torque about 150 which is about the same as standard although spread over a wider rev range. It,s the power figure which is pissing me off as many standard cars come very...
its a pity Tom didnt mention this and saved me the trip to leeds for the remap, they could have also finished some of the work Tom was supposed to do!!
Good luck with the sale, they seem to be very mileage sensitive and the higher mileage ones have taken a hit in the past year. I bought one at 60k that was in better nick than a 40k one i viewed but mines probably worth less now, i went on condition not mileage. yours sounds great with some...
When it went in for the RS2 i was getting a decat as well for my RS192 but they didn't have time to fit it so it was running terribly it did have a leak at the cat gasket which didn't help. It did seem to have more torque low down but less power higher up although i didn't use it hard. It was...
