Re: Previous customer

Had my old bus chipped up in 2006. It needed a new chip soldering into the ecu. All done on my kitchen table :) Fitted a forge diverter valve at the same time. Still going well. Chipped at 80k; car is on 120k now. Apart from ruining clutches I have had no bother at all. Fuel economy improved on aver...
