yes but how will you remap the ECU? That's exactly what R-tuner lets you do! |

Revington TR, a triumph tuning company, we have 2 of the 3 works rally cars that still exist, valued around the 70k mark!
ive found out what caused this engine to stop, the big end bearings on no.1 had been turning with the crank, instead of with the big end, and the con rod on the same piston has bent in 2 directions! |
