Dastek Day

heheh no prob Mark I'll tell you more abt it when I see you....Think I better keep quiet abt what I've done to the car its going to be well if it can't even match the std bhp...

Nah my ACS is only a wee baby compared to M_blur...

I guess they could and I'm sure they'll be more than happy to advocate their uni-chip. What I like about Dastek is that they're prepared to expose many of the tuning myths about chip upgrades. Gerry really comes across as a guy who's seen it all and knows his stuff and is prepared to advise against mods where value is minimal.

However the answers to your questions all seem obvious Neil..

Dastek use a piggy ecu rather than re-map your std flash.. which, unless the BMW technician is blind, will be detectable. However it's designed so that it can be removed.

However what's interesting is that the gain on a std car will be very small.. They managed only 1.5% gain on M 8LUR to the stock ecu. To gain more you're going to need to bypass the AFM and that will require their equivalent to the Alpha N module. Gains on non-M cars are usually better and of course only a different map can really make use of the increased potential of a better induction or exhaust. Hope this helps m8 tho a std ecu can be shown to adapt and increase power as I've seen in the M.

The RR day itself is a good opportunity to see what your cars are running, whether any mods are actually adding value and to seek advice from the Dastek team. I'm sure it will turn out to be a good day out and it's one of the few events that is not weather dependant.

Aye - sounds like you can fill in for Malc m8.. welcoem BTW.. just turn up as soon as you can as I suspect the list will prove quite flexible..

There's also a chance M 8LUR might not be back from Glasgow in time but I'll make it along regardless.

If one of the early lot can help get the ball rolling and I'll get there as soon as poss.

BR,

If I'm l8 can someone help supervise proceedings.. Gerry should have things will sorted but just to help organise our rabble...

I'll be heading from Eduinburgh and will get there ASAP but you know the traffic...

Cheers Jim - yes please m8.. just stick on whoever is ready first and everyone can form and orderly queue.

Mark (R8 MTC) is picking me up at 4.45 in Edinburgh.. will hopefully be there for 5.30 traffic permitting.
