    I gave in & took the plunge, I've had my car remapped & what a noticeable difference, it was v good to drive before , but now its even better, and hopping over time the better fuel consumption will pay me back, "rok on" If your thinking about having it done 'do it, its well worth it' better car all round, well happy, Thanks to Kinetic Tuning :)

    I've read up about it on the net on the companies that do it, & the majority say the most common & best / safest option is the 'Mixed race' option giving good power performance & up to 20% better fuel so think that's the 1, but I was hoping some one here has done it to their car. !

    I own an E87 118d 2008 and I am interested in getting the ECU remapped, I am looking for some advice whether to go ahead & get it done or not, is there any one out there that has had it done, is it worth it or not. !! Is it as good as they make out. !! Kevin
