    Thorney Motorsport Custom Remap

    Been looking at this for sale. Does the re-mapping make it a better car or is it one to steer clear of??

    Thorney are a rspected CSL specialist so should not be a problem to be honest. Not driven one with the remap but it doesn't add much more BHP and has been done to 'smooth the ride'...what ever that means...purhaps a smother power delivery maybe.....sure Daz or someone will confirm.

    Wouldn't worry about it as it's Thorney...maybe ring them and ask the a few questions....seems very resonably proced for miles as well.

        Give John a bell , he will be able to fill you in on the car , all OK though and nothing to worry about , he has looked after all my cars , and building my current race car.

        Driven John's on track and road and its very smooth , not had it done myself as im slowly doing bits , Brakes - Suspension , then exhaust and upgrade if I decide to go that route .. but as andy says nothing to worry about , give it a little edge and from a trusted tuner :thumbs:

        Would only go for buy from trusted actual tuners / Thorney / BMSport etc not those bolt on monkeys , who sell bits, but dont have full experience / rolling road and depth of knowledge, stay clear of some out there !!

          Basically improves throttle response and mid/top end torque, helps it pull harder right through to the limiter, also removes top end speed limiter,
          20hp sounds a bit optimistic ,from Thorneys site that is.


          (SI.... i spoke to CA recently about their remaps, their flash map of a std car adds around 9-10 bhp but again , does the above in relation to throttle response etc. Costs £450 inc vat and ....... get this, they come to your home/work and install the map, all in for the £450 :119: :119:
          If you are not impressed/dont like their work, they will uninstall it , and refund.
          Pretty furking reasonable if you ask me.
          Anyone on here had any experience of their mapping ??

                Thorney not that far for me!

                I think i would have the Thorney Re Map over the CA. No reason for it just Thorney have a better/bigger name for it!

                              CSL register unmapping day elsewhere afterwards to get more power

                              (only going on a graph I've seen where a CSL made more power after being reverted to standard from a Thorney map).

                              Having driven a Thorney (based on superchips) stage one car I thought my standard car felt quicker? I guess felt quicker and is quicker are different things though in all fairness.

                              Anyone quoting 20bhp from just a remap on a healthy engine is talking nonsense.
