Looked in search but didn't see any with a price 
basically want to know how long it would take and what it'd cost for mine (x16xe) with a new inlet (lexmaul/dbilas/mantzel). other than that its just got piperX panel filter and a lightly drilled + derestricted air box.
what sort of power would i be looking at? engine has only done 50k so is in fairly good condition.
thanks chaps

how long does it usually take, seen some say 2 days+
is there anywhere that will have like a map already set up, then would just need slight alterations?

That's what this is.
The chip in the standard ECU is changed to one that is re-mappable. They go from there over a base map.

oh righty.
A full rolling road tuning session, including power graphs can also be performed. This takes approximately one hour of time on the rollers and prices start from £85 for this service.
thats what it says on the courtenay sport site... would that be alright for my motor? I saw on another topic jamsport need the car for like 2 days!

If you haven't got a re-mappable ECU. It doesn't work.

300+450= 750.
conversion kits are £550. if you can get an xe, box, loom, ecu and all the other bits you need for the conversion then pay to get it fitted..........its going to be a lot more.
plus you will have a shed of an engine for that money, probably 15 years old that needs a rebuild.

they can all be remapped!
your moaning about spending money on a remap but considering a £85 for a power run with a wideband lambda probe in the exhaust...... where is the logic

what logic? what you on about probing the exhaust.
i don't know much about remaps, various ways of doing it etc. (hence why i ask on here).
just i've had other people say doing like a dastek uni chip setup is like £200
