    The other benefit of going to Jamie (apart from the extra BHP) is it's custom to your car and he knows his stuff, he can smooth out any imperfections in the map.

    Why are you booking it in for another remap? Is there a lot more torque to be gained or something?

Remap and relax now as already producing about 143 bhp on last visit to Jamie and that was with my split hose to the EGR valve! Airtec sorted that and the fault codes have been reset on the ecu and the engine management light is now permanently off! Phew!

    How does it run now? Mine suffers with turbo lag a little bit, not financially viable at present to get a remap :/

    Will book a visit to Jamie when convenient.....in the meantime it has been brilliant to get my DS3 back and it`s full power without any fault codes or engine warning lights on.Turns out it was the rubber hoses that connect to the EGR valve that had split and broken so fault codes were inevitable!

    Right then......DS3 has been with Airtec for almost a week and I am pleased to report that it is ready to come home,no fault codes and tickety-boo! Which also means that I can visit Jamie at SP Tuning! Woo hoo!

    Thanks again to Jamie at SP Tuning and to Ryan and the team at Airtec for getting La Petite Fusee back on track!
