as im doing over 500 on standard internals and very biased plus rcm run one dave rowe maps them (very well) he also maps simtec which he says is good, but then you will get pats buddies that will say solaris is the best so really its down to you but as your car is at rcm i would stick with what they recommend and stuff the expense

Defo for Motec M800 if you have the cash...you can also get a Motec diff controller too and adapt it to your driving which most other ECU's don't have...apart from Gems and Pectel.

Simtek and Solaris will be 2nd choice....but pretty similar in features, price and mappers out there who can program them.

True. Although for some reason, there is never any complaint when I get a taxbill that is way higher than what your average Englishman is paying. :2up:

With all the money you earn the gov. should tax you so highly that all you are left with is the minimum wage :lol: :lol: :lol: with the majority of it going to the pasty engine fund :lol: :lol: :lol:

Given tax is the only reason I, and about 50% of the professionals in London, stick up with the tw@ts that populate this island, there wouldn't be much left of the UK economy if the raised taxes...

Go to London and you can't be served in a single shop, restaurant or pub by a Brit. Are there actually any Brits that work ? (except for those that create a lot of hot air doing as if they work) :?

But i know what you mean, i've been in Tesco's up here & felt like i'm the foreigner as all the staff are Polish :?

I disagree with the Motec choice tbh

Solaris all the way.....

AVCS control
8-injector control
Anti-lag and Launch Control ( NOT AN ADD-ON AT AN EXTRA PRICE LIKE THE MOTEC)
Full Knock Control
Diff Control
.
.
.
and so on, and so on, and so on.

Solaris does all the MOTEC does but its all in there, no need to pay to have options unlocked that are always available on the Solaris.
