        As far as I know there are only 3 people in the UK that can live map Motronic:-

        Mark at AutoMark
        Mihnea at MRC
        Wayne at Chipwizards ( just checked their website and it's not working so not sure if they are still trading )

        Dialynx are just a dealer for MTM aren't they??

          I have talked to Mark at Automark and he seems like a really decent guy, got recommended from Spinks too so think I will just travel up north and let him do his stuff, RS2 upgrade but with hybrid turbo

              I've had a few chats with Motorsports Developments in Blackpool. They claim they could remap the Motronic, they seemed decent guys.

              I've now taken the safe route and just gone for an RS2 spec rather than anything fancy.

                QST are the UK mtm dealer.
                Pretty much just a generic map.
                They used to (or still do) custom maps but they'd need to bring Peter Link over from mtm to do it, you have to pay his expenses etc. (someone on rs246 went through all that on an rs4)

                  Hooking up with Prj would be a much better move imho.

                    Polishingfrenchman had his S2 mapped at automark when he had the 3071 fitted. I drove the car and the map was brilliant,smooth and very progressive. I'd recommend traveling to see Mark.
                    Just some finishing touches to do now

                        Dialynx do custom maps but I'm pretty sure they use an after-market (pos Motec?) ECU along with dissy ignition.

                        PRJ is the man for custom maps on anything other than 3B's, thing is he's not over here often.

                        Automark are well regarded, it's likely my S2 will be going there one day in the future but for now I'm happy with it (finally), currently building up parts for another engine with a strengthened bottom end ready for a K26/7.

                        Have you got a wideband AFR gauge fitted yet mate?
