Has anyone heard of the meet in Edinburgh in the middle of thre month. My mate was told by a chip supplier there was a BMW meet he is to goto to have his car mapped at. He has not been told any details yet.
Anyone? ------------- Toby http://www.bmminiparts.com - New Genuine BMW & Mini OEM parts - www.bmminiparts.com 1987 E30 M3 with turbo being added |

If i find out i'll let people know. My mate bought a chip for his VR6 and when the supplier sent the chip, my mate realised he had given the wrong vin no. The supplied said you can only map these engines, but don't worry i'm at a BMW meet in the middle of November in Edinburgh. ------------- Toby http://www.bmminiparts.com - New Genuine BMW & Mini OEM parts - www.bmminiparts.com 1987 E30 M3 with turbo being added |

Can't remember which forum it was on, but I recollect somebody supplying chips and that he would come to you providing you could get one or two people together - is it something like that? -------------  |

If the cars are being mapped then they would need a rolling road. The only one i know of is in the Abbey area of Edinburgh. ------------- Toby http://www.bmminiparts.com - New Genuine BMW & Mini OEM parts - www.bmminiparts.com 1987 E30 M3 with turbo being added |
