Take a trip down the M40 to Brackley Silverstone area and you have APS at Brackley and LSV at Silverstone.

Locally you have MRC in Banbury as well & they seem to be getting good results for the B7 RS4.
Personally it's DMS for me, but that's a treck down to the South Coast, although they do offer a mobile service pretty much anywhere in the world. Costs no more in the UK for them to come to you.

I didn't know they did a mobile service for the same price as you going to them. I presume they need a dyno to complete the remapping process?

No, although if you want dyno then you will need to go to them. They have a Dyno Dynamics IIRC. Their current map is RR developed using one of RS246 members cars.

MRC had a break-in last week so have been up to their eyes trying to sort the mess out. Give them a chance to get back on their feet - you won't be disapointed

I Revo'd our 07 model last week - although no real improvements in peak Bhp, there was around 20bhp available midrange from around 3k-7k - makes for quite a different drive - smoother and definately faster
