Hi,

I work in Luton and am very interested in this. How long would you need the car to remap?

Hi

We would need the car for about 1 hour. We can drop/pick you up from work whilst the remap is being carried out.

Here is a review from a forum member who took up the offer of the Evolve Remap with a Switch unit for a TDV8.

http://www.rrsport.co.uk/forum/topic11268.html

We have the evolve Switch units in stock ready for next day delivery. All orders outside the EU will not have to pay 17.5% VAT so this can be taken off the prices quoted in the first post.

regards

Imran

anything for 4.4L? 

UK Vat is now 15% incase anyone re reads this post. Follow Us On Twitter @bellautos

Thanks bellautos for bringing the post up again!
This really sounds very, very interesting.

I hope, evolve still reads this topic and answers the questions, so here are mine:

Do I understand it correctly that I can get my car remapped without bringing it to you due to the switch unit?
I understand I can switch the car back to normal with the switch unit before brining it to the dealer, can the dealer still recognize the car has been remapped?
If I have the situation that my dealer does a ECU update what will happen? Will I not be able to upload the mapped software on the car again and then I will have to download the new original software on the switch, send it to you and get a new one back? Or can I break something by trying to remap it again with a remapping that is based on "older" software?
To switch between original and tuning do I need anything else than your unit and a normal PC, like any special car tools or so or is it just plug and play?

A lot of questions, I know, but I would be very pleased if you could answer them!

Sorry you've lost me...I know that's not hard.....so if a dealer reflashes the ecu will I be able to use the hand-held unit again to restore the tuning? Or do I have to make sure I put my car back to standard before it goes into the dealer?[/

Thanks a lot for the answer!

Are your prices an data for the TDV6 the same as posted earlier by evolve or are there any differences (which?)?
Would be interested to know. Thanks.

I'm planning a remap about march next year (after the next service) so no need to hurry but I like beeing well informed.

TUV wont be needed on a remap that no offical is ever going to see

My prices are slightly more than some other competitors due to the developement of my products and mapping that is done in house . see here http://www.defender2.net/forum/post2617.html#2617

Most other competitors maps are not made by there selfs nor is the developement work and are only bought in from a tool supplier or from AutoLogic.

Sounds nice, thanks.

I'm with you on the officials thing...

Just two more questions:
Is the speed limiter also deleted or raised with the remap? Or could this be done the same way for some payment?
How long does reprogramm it take before taking it to the stealer? Is it a fiveminutes-job or does it take more like an hour?

Thanks!  RRS TDV6 HSE, 2006, bonatti grey, ebony interior, rear diff, s/c grille and vents, stormers, privacy, tasmods, iphone integration

Hi
Yes i can remove or adjust the speed limiter for you built into the mapping for no extra cost, just as ive done on my RRS and D3's

It takes 6 mins to read and 4 mins to write on average.

That sounds great!

Hi All,

Believe me when I say the switchable re-map is a very easy and quick method of re-mapping your RRS and the increase in useable power is fantastic

Having owned a TDV8 for 12 months thinking that it had enough power, once Pete persuaded me to give the switchable re-map a try (having the same system on my Defender TDCi), he could not get the box back off me and I could not get rid of the grin on my face

Pete is very coy about the work he does and often does not make comment on these sites even when others are not telling the full truth. Everyone selling the switchable re-maps, other than Pete, are using someone elses maps bought in standard form, which makes the map you are buying a standard map for any TDV6/8 etc, but Petes are specifically mapped for your individual car so any quirks your car may have can be compensated for or adjusted etc - this makes Petes system much better

One last thing, its not all about how much extra BHP or power you can get, but more about the useable power when needed

"OVERSTEER" ------is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"HORSEPOWER" ----is how fast you hit the fence.
