morning all,

had my heart set on a bluefin for my ecoboost 100 but have come across a few different types on the market.

couple of links below - anybody had experience of these ?

the last one seems a joke - sold loads though , wonder how many engines have gone bang with one of these on lol

any other recommendations much appreciated.

I'd choose Bluefin or any other properly reputable remap & inform your insurance company if you get it fitted.

choice Bluefin !

hi petrus

i see you have one installed , whats your view on it ?

Bog standard125 suits me fine.

29 bhp more than an XR2.

30 years later I admit.

In any case, where are you going with the painful 30 sticklers in front ?

Hi Mark ;)

 

mines only the 100 version hence going for a map. just been in contact with a friend who,s dad is a garage owner , he can do a bluefin alot cheaper than buying from ebay etc so prob going ahead with that. will post any results up when finished.

Whatever you do, inform your insurance company.   Otherwise you could find that you are uninsured.   Insurance companies aren't daft, in the event of a write off they will try anything to get out of paying including checking your chip.

thanks bobr , sound advice , i will certainly do that.
