seven weeks for a remap?  :surprised:
Surely it shouldn't have taken that long, even if other jobs were in the way?

He has the ex JC ex Hurdy GT28 kit and he didn't want to use Revo / GIAC software so hence 7 weeks for West Tuning to do a map from scratch for it and make it run nice.

It better be worthwhile Martin.

350hp is what you have asked for?  that doesnt make sense to me, you could have done that with a k04 and had more power and torque from earlier in the rev range.  instead your going to lose the lower end and yet ionly make the same as a k04 @ the top end

that is of course if it only makes 350 obviously. if you make more than it becomes more reasonable
