At a technology level i doubt much between them so it's really geography & personal preference.

I've always used DMS & trust their products & Customer care without doubt, but they're near Southampton although do offer a mobile service.

If you look in the Group Buy section, i set one up about 18mths ago which i'm sure will still be valid.

I have had both APS and MRC remaps, both good quality of service. depends on what style of remap you want, Generic or Custom. the latter being more expensive.

Im currently running the MRC remap and am happy, it totally compliments my current set up.

Apologies if you have already posted this, but do you mind saying what peak horespower and torque increases you had post MRC re-map; appreciate area under the graph is where the driveability is though :wink:

I have to get my arse into gear and get her on the rollers, due to work im finding it hard to have spare time.

Last year I had my car dynoed at 380 bhp @Flywheel (Surrey Rolling road), all standard apart from BMC filter and a APS Generic remap.
I have since had 200cell Cats added and have Had the MRC Remap, I will get her on the rollers in Feb, so give me a few weeks.

The MRC remap, changes the torque curve, lifted the limiter and has a pre warm up limiter at 5k rmp instead of the 7k OEM rpm limiter. I noticed a huge difference drivability when I had the remap, and im not talking about any placebo effect either. :wink:
