Whats the general opinion on these?
At the mo ive got x16xe with velos torq tube, induction cone, de cat and power flow exhaust.
Been quoted between £450-£500 for a days rolling road setup of one in Norwich. Fair price?
Cheers

I had a unichip done there a couple of months ago, was the main guy clive atthowe that did it as well, been tuning for years really knows his stuff and explains everything clearly.
Had the car for a day and a half, spent quite a bit of time mapping. Think you can get a rev module for the unichip which will allow adjustment of the rev limiter.
I had a superchip fitted from Courtenay and the fuelling was a disaster, Clive really sorted it out, went from 192bhp to 203bhp.
have you explained all the engine mods you have had done as well?

yes would reccomend,
my only problem is that they always seem really really busy and stressed lol. My car was there for a day and a half because he was fitting it into slots when he could, otherwise probably would have done it in a day. But used them before and i cant fault their work.

I didn't realise mapping cost so much. Thing with unichips is - if say someone has a uni chip on say a X14XE could I use that uni chip on my X12XE? but just get it re-mapped?
