    i cant post in the business section so i'll have to ask you here.
    i've just looked at CC prices, 246 pounds is about $500au, what map does this apply for? a k03/k04 flash they already have? once you start customizing the map to suit your setup how is this charged? from what i understand you a probably using the their base k04 map and getting it altered to suit your setup?? it seems that CC should be able to make big turbo files for agu? sort of like revo does for dbw US cars.
    if someone installed a gt28 for example, run it on a k04 map, do some logging, send it off to you, you send it to CC then they should be able to adjust the map to suit that particular setup?
    what blocks need be logged for agu? cheers!

    That map will be a Phase 1 for your car. 'Off the shelf" if you like.

    You can't do direct comparisons on pricing like you have based purely on exchange rates. No-one else in the game does. I can't see Guy Harding doing flashes which are effectively the same money as the states.

    Before I make any statements about how much it would cost to map and car for you. I think we need to talk about where you are headed.

    Essentially, you are right though. Log, adjust, reflash. Much easier if you have something on file which you can use as a starting point.

    You need to do some external logging with the AGU as the ECU doesn't have a built in MAP sensor.

    PM will be sent with my number.

    cool
    i understand that the price is for uk customers, just wanted to ask how is the customizing of the map charged compared to the base price as the map needs to be refined.
    obviously the base price will have a markup to start off with. pm recieved

    hey gavin in my mk2 vr6 i have the cable clutch conversion, and the bracket that holds the cable on the box ( where the mk1 gbox mount is) was bent back 15mm by someone. this was causing it to hit on the shifter when you tried to go into 2nd. i bent it back and now my clutch pedal is super far out and the clutch slips.?? but i can get 2nd . its in the postion the bracket is supposed to be. its like the cable is to short, or maybe the clutch forks are bent ? the vr6 clutch on a cable mech is very heavy lol
    what do you guys recon
    cheers brenton

    I don't think the cable conversion was supposed to handle the clutch you need with a VR engine.

    The hydraulic is much better.
