Looking into getting my van mapped. A company down south list it on their website and the claims seem to be quite attractive:

Vauxhall Movano 2.5 CDTI 100 100 hp to 128 hp / 260 nm to 325 nm

Recently drove a ldv maxus with 125hp and it was pretty quick for a big van. Far less sluggish and almost enjoyable to drive with that extra bit of ooomph behind it.

What are peoples thoughts and recomendations for someone that will do turbo diesel tuning for a resonable price.

Cheers, Elliot.

There is a guy that goes to my gym who is a senior technition/mechanic with big garage, can't remember which one. He is an agent for a company down south who does remaps. He lives near Falkirk and i would trust the guy. No idea what price he charges but if you want to give me a call then pm me and i will give you his mobile.

From your sketchy information I would say he works for one of the customising garages in boness like Peugeot ecosse or alien concepts .

Just from the fact he said it was near falkirk the guy came from I deduced Bo'ness. Whitburn is probably too far away to go for the gym (sorry KMM)

Your all wrong, so get it up you!!!! His name is Mark. I've got people traveling from further than Whitburn to come to my gym - thanks very much.
I suppose reading it back, my info looks a bit sketchy and secretive.

Going to pop down to Dingbro today and get a new fuel filter, air filter and do an oil change on it before getting it mapped to ensure its running at its best. Will have a ring round and see who can have a tinker with it in the coming week. Cheers

Just though id let folk know how things went. Mark from eliteremaps came over today and has mapped the van. As it turns out it was actually a rarer 114 hp model i have, and is not on many mapping systems software.
After a call to HQ to find the relevant id etc for the van he got everything sorted, and a tweeked map uploaded onto the ecu.

Ive only been down the road and back for a test drive, but the difference is huge. Got about 20 bags of cement and half a ton of sand in the back and it pulls better than it did empty. Will make a big difference when carrying heavy loads with the extra tourqe, and im sure once ive got it emptied out it will be pretty quick. should also see better mpg when driving it sensibly too im told.

Would highly recommened him to anyone. Think the main gains come from 2000> turbo diesel and petrol cars and vans.

He said its ok to post his details (if PH allow!?) so its Mark on 07841033056 Elite Re-maps

Cheers for everyones help and recommendations.

Old man wants his HG-V remapped so i think we'll give him a go. Nice one chief.

EDIT - Just contacted them through the website, looking at these results http://www.eliteremaps.com/detay.asp?ProdID=793 and landing at a very, very nice price smile
