Default Richard - FB Tuning
Massive massive thanks to Richard at FB Tuning

Road mapped the car today and spent considerable time explaining all the stages and what the figures meant and what he thought could be improved.

A true professional who offer great advice and an honest opinion on whether he feels it is worth mapping the car rather than just taking your money and working a conveyer belt of cars through in one day.

Car was previously mapped but refined by Richard and feels so much better on the drive home. Boost and fueling has been smoothed out and the boost is held properly which makes a massive difference.

Once again - many many thanks Richard and anyone looking for a remap - consider Richard and you won't be dissapointed

Ryan

Good work and as you say it's always good (and rare) when a tuner talks you through the various elements. Rather then plugging in a laptop, saying little then just smiling when you hand over the money.

I'm seeing Duncan on the 3rd so will let you know how it goes, I was tempted to use Rich but he's not a Syvecs dealer as yet.

I've used both - the bhp figure is easy to achieve with the right mods but how the car gets there is another thing entirely! Can't fault either chap but I know where I'll be going back to when it comes to mapping the car the way I like it and being methodical and honest about what is needed before I hand over big wads of cash

Customer liaison and interaction is a big thing when U give up ur hard earned cash

Road mapping always ends up with a more driveable map (as long as appropriate time is spent on it) and it won't be just a figure chaser.

As Dave says - give Richard a bell

Richard is far from illusive and extremely customer service orientated - hence my switch of mappers
