  1. looking at all of this and being very much a plug and play guy .....has anyone got a Columbus for sale since swapping these units over!!?? All I want is B/T and a nav
  2. Took mine on the weekend, Not sure how you feel yours lets you down but it is definitely better for me now, Mine always felt lazy at low revs and now feels more responsive, as for the higher revs it is noticeably quicker for sure, Fuel economy... ive not been anywhere to gain a good indication as yet but will keep you posted but its certainly no worse.
  3. Well I have had the remap, Ive not had time to gather much fuel data on my normal work commute as yet but will update as soon as I have a fair pattern. As for power is has definitely made the car less lazy on lower revs, as for the higher revs it is noticeably more responsive and quicker. As the guy who did it said you can never make up for CC so it wont pull as hard in all gears as my old 2L PD Octy, but it certainly is quicker for sure.
  4. Agreed Mike, I solely want mine done with regards to having some more low down torque so it pulls better when needed, I am mostly found in the left hand lane on a Duel carriage!
  5. I have heard nothing but good things about Shark and if you have one near you then you cant go wrong from what I have read. I am going to the one I am as my mechanic of 15 years has given his endorsement so should be all good

  8. Im Getting a remap stage 1 on my 1.6cr at the weekend, he says it should go from 105 to about 140bhp Will be good to see as had a 2.0pd before this one so can compare

  10. Hi All, Does anyone have a recommendation on LED DRL bulbs as I have bought 2 sets now and neither set has worked in my DRL although the bulbs are not faulty (checked in my reversing lights)
