Had anybody had any experience with Regal Tuning at Poppleton, York?


Thanks

Hmm,

Thanks. Noticed them locally and in the absence of anybody else in the area (York really is poor for anything car related) thought I'd give them a try.

Thier fb page suggests they opened up about 6 months ago. I might go have a chat with them just to see what they are about but now thinking not worth the hassle.

There is a Revo dealer in Hull but its a good hour away and nearly double the price. Wouldn't usually bother me but this is for a shed car I'll hopefully be rid of within 6 months. Just bored of the lag!

I'm not sure you were wrong. Seems to be a franchise owned business so 'Regal' name used in different places.
If its one guy doing the maps, Steve, and they're bad, doesn't matter where you are in the country, they'll still be bad.


I'd guess many operate the same model, certainly REVO seem to.

I think you need to consider two things. The quality of the software from Regal / REVO and then the surety of the installer to sort any issues to completion if it goes wrong.

I think it's just a generic map. Several authorised dealers offer, all the same price. About £400 iirc which is too much for me. Just after some cheap thrills until I can find a sports car.

Don't know whether is covid or summer but virtually impossible to buy a used 350 lotus for a sensible price at the moment.

Might run it on 98 rons for a while. Should be worth a good 10 horses and get me into Prius level MPG

225. Any less and I'd delete my account.

Why would any PHer buy any other model?

Big Fish Tuning in Stokesley isn't that far away. They are held in high regard, did my Skoda remap last month.
Cheers will have a look.
Stokesley would give a great test run back to York!
