wayne @ Chipwizards is probably one of the best mappers in the country :)

Yeah ive heard their good.. but i was speaking to a guy that had his gt mapped there.. it made 143bhp with similar setup.. and was not happy.. took it to msd tuning.. and they said the fuelling was way out along with cam timing.. and msd done it and got it up to over 150bhp.. and they were rolling roaded at the same place .. at another rolling road not at msd or chipwizards

why cant your ecu be connected to via the obd2 port?

Wayne is good but he isnt one of the best in the country.

northampton motorsport always get good results i found they dont treat all TU engines the same. They focus on each engine as if its the only one in the world

Interesting. Last time when I was looking in to it no one I asked could actually do what I wanted with the C2 ECU. A bunch of places said they could do it but when they realised I actually knew what I was talking about they would have nothing to do with me. Most of them were idiots. John from GMC explained to to me that the ECU was that complicated that no one currently could truly remap it. Chipwizards was the only place who actually offered this sort of service that was honest with me about it.

would be cheaper and easier for standalone then?

The ecu just won't communicate through the obd.. some c2's have this problem.. nobody knows why.. some work perfectly fine through the obd... and other have none of it..

i have heard of GMC saying they can't be truly remapped.. but red dot claim they can doit.. and some of you may know jamespc with the 150bhp gt? it worked on his..

I was thinking standalone.. but it would be easier for me to get the standard remapped..

so chipwizards?
