Was going to buy a beast of a PC,
but thinking about it...
Screw it.

Okay, I have a VTS w/ 3 Plug ECU.
BMC
Straight Through Exhaust.

What do I need to go Catcam 708 spec?
Would you recommend the Raceland Manifold?
Where do I take my car for a map?
Can I run my car without a map for a while/how long will it take to get the ECU mapped (appointment time)?
Should I upgrade to GTi-6 Brakes?
Would you reccomend a Shortshifter too?
How much is all of this?

Where do I take my car for a map? ChipWizardsCan I run my car without a map for a while/how long will it take to get the ECU mapped (appointment time) You can put it will run like crap and drink petrol. Takes a few hours on the rollers to be mapped

If I rang Chipwizards Leeroy, how long will it take before that bad boy gets mapped?

Another vital question.

Cams fitted with a new belt. How much approx?

Good luck getting hold of him! Besides, I wouldn't recommend a re-map with a 3 plug ECU. It's just not worth it...

or camming it and not bothering with a map?

get it done man

3 plugs always seem to make less bhp but its not by much

Karl

yeah Id be more than happy with 150bhp?

- Or should I just buy Piper manifold, shortshifter, better brakes and strut braces.

It's the ECUs, not Wayne's skills. They're just pony...

Karl

so you think I should steer clear of cams and a map and save myself potantially 900 quid?

No, changing the camshafts is good! And also a change of management is required. I just think re-mapping the stock ECU is not the best thing. Re-mapping a 3plugger is far worse...
