TDV8 ECU Remap, who to use in Essex

Hi Chaps,

I take delivery of my 2009 RRS TDV8 tomorrow and would like to get a remap for more performance, i have 2 questions as follows:

1. which company do you experienced RRS boys reccommend..preferrably in Essex Bow down
2. is the remap detectable by the dealer as i don't want to negate my warrenty Whistle

your considered replies would be much appreciated Thumbs Up

The favorite companies are both forum sponsors

Bell Auto Systems
Alive Tuning


The both do remote tuning modules that allow you to essentially remap you own motor.

1 You buy the remap interface
2 plug in and read ecu,
3 send standard file to tuner by email,
4 they send back a modified / tuned map
5 You upload to car using the interface

You now have two maps on the interface standard and remapped and can switch them at dealer visits if you wish.

You can get a remap from them without the module which is cheaper (i did this with Alive at a Land Rover show for a very good price Wink )

Hope that helps Thumbs Up TDV8 now with extra grin factor thanks to Alive Tunning: Gone but not forgotten

As Rob says above, or you could try AMD in Thurrock (low profile forum sponsor Whistle ).
