best thing, is to find out where you want it mapping at, and ask them what they prefer to map with.

yeah the place you will be taking it to. no point buying an ecu they don't have experience of really. i know they're much the same these days though. some places prefer some ecu's over others.

As Nic said, find out where you are going to take it first, and ask them. No point in buying Omex if the place you've decided on can't map the car!

yep. find a rolling road, ask them what they prefer to use. see if they can do a price supplied, fitted and mapped.

Don't really know of any places in Kent but there's probably a couple though. There's a few in Essex too, which seem to mainly do VAG stuff but probably worth a look.

Since your already down south, go with Omex and head on down to Track 'N' Road.
