TD5 tuning/remapping help!

To start this off I live in the US and have been reading/studying on who is the best and does a stand up job remapping a TD5. Since I simply can't just and drive to a shop to get a custom map. I own a Nanocom, and expect to do this via email. Have reached out several, I mean several times(10 or more emails and message on Facebook pages). To Ian at IRB, and also Gary at Alive. If I can't get someone to respond back, and I don't want to spend a 100$ calling and getting nowhere, I hate to beg someone to take my money and ask for service.

I am reaching out to see if I could be pointed in a direction of somewhere I could get service and communicate with someone to get answers...

Thanks for your help

Hi Jbullis
welcome to the forum,

Any of the re-map specialists on the forum are good - as I haven't seen any bad reviews on the here about any of them - its just presonal preferance

On that note I would also recomend BAS as Pete did a great job on my partners TD5,

however I think that the only way to remap a TD5 is on the bench... (I'm sure I'll be corrected if I'm wrong...

)

But have a chat to Pete as I'm sure that he may have a way of doing the job.

Jbullis. Hi, and welcome.

I'll second Steve and suggest Pete at BAS. He did my TD5 - more than pleased with the results.

Wyvern, stand corrected

True for the early TD5s (pre-2000) when the chips were soldered into place, but not for the later models.

Jbullis, you don't say what model year your car is. However, pre-2000 can still be tuned, just not via nanocom - it would have to be on an ecu post and return basis (package to USA excepting)

My partners 04 TD5 was done by Pete, but the ECU had to be posted to him to tweak, hence the comments in my post...

You guys steered me right. I have been working with Pete. He responds to emails quickly and doesnt mind answering questions and educating you along the way.

Thanks
