T-Jet Remap - The best company

Got in touch with celtic today to ask about if they have the software for a T-Jet remap, which they do and can get 159bhp and 190ish lb/ft torque. Will be looking to get this done end of July/early august once i have run the car in a few thousand miles and enjoyed it at standard.

Now ive heard rumours that they take it to the extreme at celtic so if i was to use them i would probably ask them to keep it down to 150bhp to be on the safe side because they say 190bhp for the m-jet and people have said on here that that is too much for the car to handle basically and would mean changing clutch and gear box every 10k miles. That is £375 all inclusive and they come to your house or work place.

So angel tuning offer a similar service but after what someone said about them last week and one of their remaps reducing the power of their i think i will stear clear of them.

That leaves GSR and Celtic to choose between. The advantages of GSR are that its cheaper and they do a before and after on a rolling road so you can see exactly what difference theyve achieved. However, its a long way for me to go down to watford, about a 4 hour trip but think about the fun on the way home

Celtic on the other hand dont offer a rolling road but do say this - " All of our software is dyno developed and we 100% guarantee our claims". They also come and do the remap at whatever location you want them to.

So does anyone have any opinions on which would be the best company to use and does anybody have any experience of using either company.

Cheers for any help

Re: T-Jet Remap - The best company

Well I can only tell you the experience that I have had of GSR / Red-Dot. Was very professional and results spoke for themselves. Very good pricing too. I drove 230miles each way to get it done WELL worth it .

I have heard bad things of Celtic and Angel Tuning but none of Red-Dot. Do a search and see what other people have said. Broken Turbo's (mainly diesel's) and loss of power once ECU Re-learns are common.

Well for reasons i wont go in to, i wont be getting the induction kit on it until next year. I think it'll be a trip for watford on the cards then, hopefully on a nice summers day and ill take a longer route down the country roads on the way back and burn some rubber
