I found Chris Knott to be the best for me  :happy2:

They have been very mod friendly as well and only increased my premium for the remap, my other mods are listed but made no difference to the premium.

hence no point dealing with mainstream standard car insurers if you want to mod.

better to deal with people like Greenlight who at least knows what the mod is and how it affects the car and give you a premium that reflects the car!

....Greenlight do charge according to what power your remap takes you to. I think it's worked out in increments of 10 bhp.

I believe you can change it now but you have to pay a cancelation fee for the remaining period. (At-least with Direct line anyway) :happy2:
