Tom is a good guy :). Welcome back and enjoy. Quite a lot of people don't like Tom for some reason, but I've nothing but good things to say about him. You'll have a fair bit more poke than the "160" map ;)

Jamie is the map with or without the black smoke churning chimmey :p: i think you know some of the reasons behind some people not taking to Tom.

They are all not unfounded, i have seen some of his work at the Nano meets, not the way it should be done in my opinion.

You are infiltrating us from the beemer marque three now hey ;) you've lost your way :D now the Nano meets have stopped we may never get you back BMW as you in its grasp :eek:

Ask Scott about the maps, both of his cars were upgraded from "160" to approx 155bhp and he has noticed a noticeable increase in performance. No smoke upon stationary revving (which most diesels would actually do as there is no boost to provide enough air for the fuel to burn). And both cars scored 0.01 on the MOT.

Work quality, I can only speak from experience, everything I have had done has been done properly. Unlike a certain white car called Bones that a well known and trusted Trikey didn't put any antifreeze in which caused the cambelt to slip and mash the valves. Regardless of whether it was going to be dumped at a later date, to fill a customers car with just water is really not the right thing to do and then caused a further repair bill, especially for the cost of probably £10 worth of antifreeze. The car also had a restricted plastic 48mm throttle body on rather than the alloy 48mm it should have had, not sure if this was his doing or not?

People can complain about one person but as soon as someone points out something that is being sold as something it isn’t. And pointing out a “trusted” traders mistakes they are the bad guy?

There’s too much trust put into a few people on here. There’s never any respect for a newcomer that offers similar services.
