    Default i've been to see the wizard the wonderful ....

    ....wizard called Darrell at Torquing Bhp

    had the signum remapped and all i can say is WOW what a difference it made

    i emailled Darrell on monday and was booked in at 10 am today

    i arrived and i have to say Darrell is one of the nicest most genuine blokes i have had the pleasure to deal with in the motor industry - he know's his cars and i am sure i my car would have been ready much earlier if we hadnt been chewing the fat soo much

    i am very happy with the results and its still bedding in ...the sense of being pushed back in your seat from a car the size and weight of a siggy brings an inain smile to my face every time i think about it - it was money well spent and i would thoroughly recommend anyone not wanting to spend in excess of £550 on a tuning box with 2 years support to give Darrell a try as he is an approved trader

    on the downside i appear to have an oversensitive turbo solenoid valve (which bought on my eml- but clears on turning off the ignition) which Darrell read the fault code for me (Free Of Charge) told me where it was on the car and even told me that they were cheaper from SAAB than from Vauxhall before i spent the rest of the afternoon driving my car around the county - having fun and managing to order a replacement sensor (hopefully here for Friday) for under a tenner from a local dealer .

    Darrell then offered to come to me and modify the map if the sensor didn't help with the pressure fault - how's that for customer service!!

    so once again thanks to Darrell you absolute star!!! and i am forever in your debt... and will happily send anyone your way in faith that if you want a job done right -your the man!



    oh yes and i think he liked my wheels !!

    well as you asked

    the local contact who was supposed to be arranging Slough contact dragged his heels and said he needed to try something else - then said i needed a BSR box as he couldnt remap my car ???? and after a month of chasing - i told him i could get it done quicker/cheaper than he was now quoting.... and if it fell through i would get back to him -

    as i said above Darrell has been a consumate professional -quick, thorough and delivered on his promise - exactly what i wanted £299 plus the vodka and tonic so all in about £204 quid cheaper than BSR with 220+ bhp and approx 315 torques - i can definetly feel the difference and the engine sounds different - all this and i'm still running ron95 cant wait to empty the tank and replace it with 99
