    Hello I have a 1998 me7 v70r looking to have it remapped

    The car is totally standard apart from a Piper panel filter it's done 70k with full service history it did have the pcv replaced up to me owning it as I do it myself who's the best to remap it it's not in daily use its spends most of its time locked in my garage I was reading about Rica bsr ect I did speak to a guy Hamish at hml someone from the other forum said he has the Rica map but Hamish said he has stopped tuning as he has not renewed his licenses on his equipment any ideas as the old girl needs some life breathing it to it as modern cars are getting so much quicker

    You'll need to join some of the Volvo facebook pages to find them, this is Shems page, Tim doesn't have a page.

    That's fine, you asked for advice, advice was given, what you do with it is up to you, it's an unfortunate thing, but forums are becoming a thing of the past unfortunately and FB is the new source for information and contacts. The two best Volvo Tuners are freely accesable on FB, if you choose not to go down that rout then you are left with waiting for someone co come along selling a used Rica / HLM ecu, also, are you sure you have an ME7 ecu?

    As has been stated earlier I can offer MTE's well received and documented' Swedish written software for your car for £395 including VAT. I do need confirmation as to whether your car has a manual or auto. box to give you the outputs for stage 1 and 2.

    You carry out the installation using MTE's Softloader as an interface between your car's OBD port and an XP laptop. I loan that Softloader against a fully returnable deposit of £155. You first take a raed out from which MTE assemvble their unique set of their calibrations to exactly match your car's basic Volvo software.

    Don.

    In respect of the 'well received and documented' BS you should search here, chez t5d5 and the VOC forums where you will find such stuff in depth... and over nigh on 20 years.
    MTE performance software, Ferrita stainless exhausts, TME stainless exhausts, AP heavy duty clutch kits, KU single mass flywheels and LSDs. 01494 785508. email don@kalmar-union.com
