Hi guys I was a bit concerned about my stage1 remap from amd , after several members telling me take with a pinch of salt with amd figures ,I decided to go to a independent rolling road specialist in luton .
Amd figures 252bhp

Independent garage run1-   242hp
                              run2-   250hp
                              run 3-  251hp


Very happy with results and very happy that amd are not as bad as people make out

All comments welcome

It takes a few runs to get the engines running optimal. I too have an AmD Tuning remap and figures, glad I can be confident in my 265bhp. Thanks for doing this!

Did amd ask you to modify the air box ?

I was already running a K&N panel filter and a GFB DV+ upgrade.

Yes that's what they asked me to do

It just allows the maximum amount of air needed for a stage 1 map to really get the max out of it. No need for a full cold air intake at this stage of tuning.
