I think that's been the general consensus for some time regarding the off the shelf remaps - be it MTE/BSR/SAM/RICA/Heico etc.. some people can't seem to help themselves and try and muddy the waters or confuse the situation though.Originally Posted by BigV
so to clarify has anyone had any problems with an off the shelf remap???
1998 BMW Z3 2.8 Roadster
Mitsy,
If we are talking about 'HAJ'? The 19T turbo and 4 switchable maps were fitted to that car before I even met Adam by a Dutch Company called Rica. I had to replace many parts on it over the years including replacing the engine twice with second hand units...the first time when Adam ran it low on oil and the second time when Adam played around with the map and it over boosted and bent a rod! We actually ran the car 2 days later at Santa Pod before changing the engine and I recorded a time of 12.99 secs at 98 MPH with a bent rod!!!!! Over the years I also replaced the suspension, brakes, steering rack, engine mount,exhaust etc etc etc.I can't remember exactly what state of tune Adam sold his car as/or with. What I do remember though we were constantly installing different Rica Maps on that car for test purposes and sometimes just for fun!
So the answer to your question is either: Loads or None !!!
I trust this helps.
Now could you tell all who your mate is and what his qualifications are and exactly what AFR he considers as correct at WOT @ 5000rpm on a 4.4 T5.
or if that is too difficult could you please tell me exactly which Rica maps I am supposed to have altered/played around with?
I suspect that you are going to find the second question impossible to answer as I have personaly NEVER altered a Rica map. Before your 'Kangaroo Court' jumps to any more conclusions please get the facts right Tony.
Best Regards,
Hamish.

Well apparently Hamish's RE-MAPS are made of Lemons as to keep his costs down
Fact is Tony everytime someone on here gives a response that you cant argue with you move the goalposts to suit your agenda, it really doesn't take a scientist to work out where the problems lie here and anyone with any common sense will see right through you.

Mitsy,
What do you think you are talking about. You are talking complete nonsense as usual. You and all your 'chums' know absoletly ZERO about any agreements, conversations, contracts, finances between myself & Rica and who pulled what from who.
Are you any closer to answering my 2 previous questions?
Best Regards,
Hamish.

someone go ahead and answer the above question. pmsl.
Moppy my dear sweetheart the reason I asked Hamish about Adams car was to verify what MOD's he had carried out but in around about way he hasn't answered the question
But as usual side swiped the question to Adam
If Hamish would be so kind to state what engine MOD's where carried out on Adam's car as Im very interested to find out due to me buying the very engine and gearbox to which belonged to Adams old car
But Hamish will no doubt deny all knowledge
As for the goalpost my lovely this is how I play my game's
My 304 from VT I had quite a few years ago was good. When I had my 19T, 3 inch downpipe and custom map from them it was even better. That was over two and a half years ago and never missed a beat. bahbah
Heres a boring dyno run, not done at HLM.
