Question: Hi, I have a 2000 reg BMW 316i. It has a 1900cc engine and im looking to fit a turbo charger, i was wondering if you do turbo conversions at all whether you would be able to do it to my car or if not what tuning you can do to improve the performance, thanks
Answer: Yes, it's possible, although hard to recommend. There are supercharger kits available which might make the task easier. Try USA websites!

Question: Hi - re fitting a boost controller, my car is a 94 wrx wagon with (i believe) an unmappable brain! cannot really stretch to a simtek and was wondering if a boost controller may be a cheaper way of making some small gain? guess there are no cheap gains too be had? thnx 4 help
Answer: Hi Jean - You'd be better off leaving it as it is than make an unwise choice of modification to be honest. On the off chance that the car may not be making it's full quota, a dyno session may be useful.

Question: Hi there i have recently purchsed a 94 pulsar gtir Running Pretty much standard i have had a boosting issue where i had to replace the DET Sensor, since then it has been boosting fine until ive been driving slowly for a while, come to a stop and then go to pull away, Where even off boost it hesitates and when it comes on boost it feels flat and isnt boosting as Hard, if i switch it off for a couple of minutes then restart it gets full power again until i stop and pull away then it does it again, No Fault codes Showing but it does feel like its in \"knock mode\" Hoping it might need a Good Service as im yet to do so, Any help appreciated i will be visiting you for a Rollers run once sorted Regards Dave
Answer: Hi Dave - I think a dyno session would be the place to start with that one, so I think you answered your own question!

Question: Hi, I have a 96 Impreza Wagon fitted with Simtek management. I\'m planning on upgrading to a TD05, it has a walbro pump and front mount but standard injectors. What injector/regulator set-up would you recommend and how much would you charge for the subsequent remap? Many thanks
Answer: Hi Simon - recommend asking Martyn on this one, as he's the mapper, but I'm sure 440's would be fine for up to 320 bhp or so. We may even have some. A quick chat on 01752 345880 would clear that one up, but whatever, the remap costs £240 plus vat.
