Let me know if you get hold of him mate.
Really p*ssing me off now having the car back but emissions being a joke and the only thing holding me back from passing.
Car has been running really well though to and from a few MOT places.

Tracktive Solutions have developed the Hydra EMS for it.
Its plug and play and is awesome. You're more than welcome to have a drive in it Danny, im pretty confident that with the ECU and mapping which is done by them its far smoother than anything that can be offered with the KMS or Omex systems
Itll be available for anyone to buy pretty soon

that sounds awesome mate, ill definately take you up on the offer.
i wonder if they can do one with map sensor for boosted cars? might be worth me asking them so i can compare. its great that these "new" company's like hydra ems/predator/vems are bringing out new plug and play systems as it makes our lives much easier and better for the wallet.
matt are you using a cat? is it miles out on co or lamba?

yeah theyll be able to sort it out really easily when swapping and changing parts and moving up to turbo etc.
Certainly saves so much time and money with the plug and play with no need to cut into wiring or make new looms etc etc.
Well currently im using the full BTB system so decat. Knew it would be high but thought id try it anyway and hope with the reputation which the garage had that theyd just wave the wand on the back of another car or something.
The print out is in the car at the moment but on the first test (think its titles 1st fast idle it needs to be max 0.30% and mine was 1.01% so miles out given that its 0.2% leeway i think
and on the last section its max of 0.50% and mines running at 1.58%
some of the bits it did pass on

Still no MOT as yet.
Noone seems to have an exhaust system with a cat which i can borrow for an afternoon, and i sure as hell refuse to pay out for one tbh.
Waiting on replys from a few people who may know someone that can whizz it through.
still 7 days left to retest with just the emissions needing testing.
