Right, tuning novice here, so as title. What would the pros and cons be on my standard plus.
I'm looking for around 260bhp so no clutch upgrade etc.
Looking for punchy driveability.
Thanks in advance.

well chaps, got my car back last night from Leighton after having the Stage 1 remap, and all i have to say is DO IT!!! As RICHB has said, you will not regret it!!

Im going to post my results on the FC Performance feedback thread this evening as i do not have the graphs to hand, but basically my car standard made 245BHP ooo and 269BHP after the remap!! cool Unbelievable results!
