Scottish members mapping **Still space left**

Has it ever been possible to get enough people wanting a re-map at the same time to justify Leighton travelling up for a few days?

Is it something that would be worth looking into? Main things to consider, is there enough interest and would it be of interest to Leighton.

Thoughts please folks?

Just text Leighton and this could be a goer if there is interest from us guys.

It was something mentioned by Kelv and Sparky a while back. Think Leighton wouldv needed at least 4 coops doing to make it worth his while obviously his expenses would need to be taken care of as well.
Great if you can get him up here.
Ask him if he could do my GT JTS while your at it ??

I will ask the question for the GT.

I think if there are enough of us and we are saving our own individual/travel costs it would far cheaper dividing Leightons cost amoungst the group. Surely 4 of us are in need of some mapping/ tweaks in light of recent upgrades and it doesn't come any better that Flea.

Tweaks may be required :-)

id be up for this , need to be in a couple of weeks or so still need to get my car out of hibernation and a few bits and bobs ordered and stuck on

I would be up for this,,, it would have to be a date I would be home though...!!

Get the list started

Ok well let's start a list including supporting mods as Leighton needs this, info cut and paste list when adding to it:

1. Kennyf - gt28rs, FMIC, fuel pump mod, 3" dp, lightened fly
2.

Good shout Kenny

Depending on date I would be up for this.


Sure Mattb and the baz man and possibly tight arse bandit Ross would be up for it, this was discussed before but it was getting everyone ready at the same time

Carlisle guys might be interested too

If we get Leighton up here, I vote we keep him here

Well what I was initially thinking is we all get our interest noted in a list stylee and then we all fight to the death and the last man standings date get's it?

Being straight down the line about it would be an amazing oppertunity saving us all a fair old commute, think we should all be prepared to give and take on the date.

In all honesty I'm prob in the worst position as out of my list I still need to get the clucth, turbo manifold and dp fitted!

Get yer name on the list Ronnie!

Ok well let's start a list including supporting mods as Leighton needs this, info cut and paste list when adding to it:

Roger, sorry matey, maybe I'm been picky here, if so please forgive me.

But don't you have slighly more mods than you stated, just slightly..

Hopefully we can get another head or two as I'm thinking this would be a weekend stint for Leighton. What I'll do just now is see what dates he has available, I'll try get a few possible dates and then come back here and we can start the bare knuckle fist fighting over it

Oh I've seen a few of these ha fallesn through in the past and although I think we are all pretty serious so once we agree a date to avoid any pull outs ( as this is number dependant ) would anyone have an issue with a non refundable deposit of say £50, obviousley to be held by a more longstanding trustworthy member than myself ( yes I am a pikey and would blag it!! )

If anyone does pull out the non-refund deposit can at least go towards covering the travel and accomodation costs, does that seem fair?

1. Kennyf - gt28rs, FMIC, fuel pump mod, 3" dp, lightened fly

5. THE_G - at present, straight exhaust , decat, chip ( of unknown origin!) k&n filter




coming soon ..... cr turbos stage 2 , fmic , sip , new chip , ebv uprated fuel pump and direct wiring

im close to ordering the turbo when i can get someone to help me get it of the car so i can send it away and the other parts will quickly follow so if this is a few weeks away perfect , im flexible for just about any day i will just move work around to suit

G, where abouts are you?

im in larkhall but my car is in my mums garage in blantyre.... and has been for a very long time

Yes but leighton has already mapped all of those other mods, i only need a map tweak for the exhaust

So as it stands we are 4 full maps and a tweak (oh errrr).

Ok guys think I need to stick the caveat in here of this being a 1st come 1st served basis as just now we are at the limit for a 2 day mapping visit , although Leighton has stated the possibility of doing a 3 day visit if the numbers justify.

Hot off the phone.

With regards to the deposit Leighton has said he would require half prior to travel which I think is fair enough however this wouldn't be required till we confirmed a date. In light of this there would be no need for the initial £50 deposit.

For those of use with cars in bits and pieces ( see what I did there!) in boxes we might need to get our fingers out, but in fairness can't think of a better reason to spur us on

how much is Leighton prepared to pay hyper to attend?

edited to say - hope this is helpful but he could get return flights for as little as £51 bristol to glasgow with easyjet! and no i'm not on commission

Ahem,,,,,,,,my GT????????

I did,,,,,,,, ask ,,,,,,,,, the question ,,,,,,, on your behalf ,,,,,,, and he ,,,,,,,, is ,,,,,,,,,, looking ,,,,,,, into ...... it (insert sarcastic smily here)

From that I would take it as something not done on a regular basis and could be hit or miss on the day ( regards connectivity ) if not a tried and tested mapping process. That said he never said no to it so could be a goer.

Proccy,Kenny has done this when Ross is away on his hols, thank god for small mercies


On a serious note, I do think he would be interested in this though

Get your alpha and get too ,,,,,,,,

I fired him and Paul a pm, just text him and he said it depends on price!

Alfa

Ok guys is this the list then? Am I good to get dates from Leighton based on these numbers:

1. Kennyf - gt28rs, FMIC, fuel pump mod, 3" dp, lightened fly. 4 Bar FPR to go on on the day.
2. Sparkyman - gtir , charge cooler , fuel pump mod,hopefully 3" dp
3. Zonta - mods will be updated soon
4. rAzOr_20vt - 3inch custom downpipe and custom Decat
5. THE_G - at present, straight exhaust , decat, chip ( of unknown origin!) k&n filter -coming soon ..... cr turbos stage 2 , fmic , sip , new chip , ebv uprated fuel pump and direct wiring

Might be worth giving mattb,baz,fran,skipper69 a pm mate...also the carlisle lads might be interested also

off phatso,!!!!!!!!!
Dont you just hate it when you try and be smart and end up looking like the ignorant phat [cloud9] that you are???
Howsmy spelling ?
Did you all see what I did there with the ph instead of the f just like Sparkler did????? Good eh??

Dropped them a PM with a link to the thread.

So yeahh.... My downpipe won't be here for a few weeks.....

When are we thinking for this then??

Well I was thinking try and get it for the start of October, give us time to get our parts fitted for those with bits to fit plus give Leighton plenty of notice.

But once we agree with Leighton we need to hand over 50% of the re-map fee ( more if you wish)

Does the start of October sit well with those on the list?

Off topic , I would like to take this time to say sorry to Begbie and Steamer, " sorry guys "


How much is this going cost, or is it top secret ?

Ok guys is this the list then? Am I good to get dates from Leighton based on these numbers:

1. Kennyf - gt28rs, FMIC, fuel pump mod, 3" dp, lightened fly. 4 Bar FPR to go on on the day.
2. Sparkyman - gtir , charge cooler , fuel pump mod,hopefully 3" dp, set up my greedy
3. Zonta - mods will be updated soon
4. rAzOr_20vt - 3inch custom downpipe and custom Decat
5. THE_G - at present, straight exhaust , decat, chip ( of unknown origin!) k&n filter -coming soon ..... cr turbos stage 2 , fmic , sip , new chip , ebv uprated fuel pump and direct wiring.

Added a bit, also think this is a once in a life time kind of thing, Leighton comming up here, so grab it while you can lads!

Just got my PM, didn't notice the flashing envelope symbol!
I'd be interested depending on the cost and also depending on whether its worth the hassle on a car with only an air filter/cat back exhaust. What sort of figures are we looking at for power on a stock turbo?

500bhp plus or minus %10 , say yes

Hey Paul, from FC's website:

Stage 1
Minimum Specification:
For cars aiming for 240-260bhp.

•Standard injectors
•Standard turbo
Stage 1 prices >>

.... and prices off the website:
Fiat Coupe 20v Turbo (1996-2000)
Stage 1 - £175
Stage 2 - £225
Stage 3 - £275
Stage 4 - £375
Stage 5 - £425*

Just a word of advice. If / when Leighton does come up, do check that your cars are all running in tip top condition, as it only takes one car to have a weird problem and it will delay everyone else's car from being done.

Mid October I will definitely be at home for a month

And iam in need of the master,as today matty couldn't do much with it on the rollers as he can't adjust the ecu,fueling issuses

On the flea mapping day,I would be a whole day to amend, but flea is sending me a new map and new injectors (as he has no map for my ones), so on the day it will be 3 hrs work

I see the prices above... doesnt mention the price of a tweak though lol
My car was just mapped 3 weeks ago in Bristol lol

Ok guys is this the list then? Am I good to get dates from Leighton based on these numbers:

1. Kennyf - gt28rs, FMIC, fuel pump mod, 3" dp, lightened fly. 4 Bar FPR to go on on the day.
2. Sparkyman - gtir , charge cooler , fuel pump mod,hopefully 3" dp, set up my greedy

Added a bit, also think this is a once in a life time kind of thing, Leighton comming up here, so grab it while you can lads!

Ok guys where we are at with this. I've mailed Leighton the list as it presently stands and ask for prices and of course his availability. I've geared this towards October time as realistically Leighton will have work planned and gives us a window to finish any small bits of work out standing.

Could we all please confirm we are happy with a 50% deposit?

Anything questions you guys have or suggestions fire them up, as for me I'm just going to wait to here back from Leighton.

Im happy but Im alawys happy.


Can you pm Hubby on here, he might be interested Kenny.

Done and I pm'd the guys mentioned a few posts ago but no response.
If people come in later on and Leighton is happy to extend then cool but just conscious that the more we procrastinate then it could loose momentum and I def want this to happen because I'm too cheap to pay the fuel!

Just incase anyone drops out with massive engine failure just before the event or something, better too have too many than too few just incase

Lol Ronnie don't tempt fate!

Whats the odds !!

Oooooh tempting fate auld yin!!

Cambelts all round for safety then ;-) ..
.. Looky looky i do good deal!!

(think i've said this before but...Ronnie you'll be fine cambelt wise lol)

That will be enough of that,I've had my fair share Of that

Oh and Paul_murf.
You'll be fine too lol

Only thing blowing is my trumpet as I hit 700bhp lol joking before any thinks iam being truthful lol

Ill auld yin you,, yaa diva

After this we will have to get a R/R set up !!

Diva feva!! A colour top up is required....went a little pretty in pink

I'm game for the RR!

Well funny you should mention that ...... Looking into getting post mapping RR done at extrem in Whitburn as they use Dastek rollers same as Leighton uses down in Brizzle. Organise for the last day of mapping and open up to all to drive price down?

Yae or nae?

Depends what time he finishes at Kenny.

Roger, I think you would suit a nice purple

I was thinking sprint blue lol

Nah, a wee purple rinse

Suits you sir.

I want an apology for this unwarranted comment.

Ross

shit hes back

If this happened a couple of years back I would have been all for it but as it is my Coupé is sitting at 148K and is running fine with the original un-broken engine and good oil pressure (2-2.5 Bar at hot idle)so I don't really want to mess with it much more as it's my daily driver.

I was starting to get excited about it after Sparky's enthusiastic phone call but after thinking about it more I don't want to tempt fate,i'll maybe just wait till my next Coop .

Baz


If I can make it'I'll pop up for the usual sucking in of breath and "that doesn't sound good" comments.

Hahaha "that doesnt sound good" ...

Hi Leighton , welcome to Scotland - Land of the Optimist!

I *might* be interested dependant on final price.

Ross

Ross you're so non commital , you're like my wife until the rohypnal kicks in!

Lads started a intrest thread for a Dyno day to tie in with our mapping event as I for one want to know lol!

http://www.fiatcoupeclub.org/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=1258286#Post1258286

Opened it up to all, the more the merrier (and the cheaper!)

2. Sparkyman - gtir , charge cooler , fuel pump mod,hopefully 3" dp

4. rAzOr_20vt - 3inch custom downpipe and custom Decat

Skipper get in touch with lieghton at fc performance,as he will do to you what he is doing with me...change of injectors and he will send a map, then we do power run at Wallace, then details to Leighton then he can adjust and give us a great map,.so on the day he can tweak it rather than spend all day on one car..

How was your run at Wallace ?

That was always good up at Mattys,

Best bit for me was Baz and the 220 wall, now that was class

Aye she's a stubborn one is my Coop .

Baz

Ahhhh... Memories

Lol. Even my sei came in over standard power with just an air filter. Lol.

Ross

Ross stop rubbing salt on baz's wound!!!

Cheers Kelv . The thing that really bugged me was when after popping the Gtec chip in I was hoping to get similar power gains like Sparky but it done all!

Baz

That was really a head scratching incident. Can't be compared with sparky's though. He used black magic... sacrificial chickens were involved.

I take it your compression is ok?

Update from Leighton:

"Hi Kenny,
 
Thanks for the update, I think we can cap it at the current list. In terms of dates, the weekend of the 14th-16th would be ideal for me, so about five weeks away. I am currently talking to Zonta about some tuning ahead of time and hopefully Skipper too as this will speed up the process once I am there. I will send prices as soon as I have confiemed with Zonta and Skipper. So we are pretty much good to go, once everything is confirmed I will ask for the 50% deposit and then go ahead and book flights/hotel.
 
Speak soon,
 
Leighton

Ok lads ..... time to seperate the men from the hermaphrodites!

Leighton is ready for deposits and would like payment for 50% of the total (Map price + £15) paid to:

enquiries@fcperformance.co.uk

Ideally payment will be sent as a "gift"

Could we then add our names to the list below:

1.Kennyf - Deposit Paid

Could someone get in touch with Skipper ( text/phone) to confirm he is still onboard, failing that we have a opening which so if reserves want to fire there name in on the off chance Skipper is man down ( although I'm sure he's not )

lol:

Guys, date change. Flea is changing it to the following weekend ( 23rd) due to family commitments.

We all still ok at that?

still ok for me if he is up for mapping after 5pm?

1.Kennyf - Deposit Paid
2.Sparkyman - Deposit Paid
3.

Come friday i'll be on that list :-)

*******Frome Leighton for those asking timings********
________________________________________________________

Hi Kenny,

I plan to fly up Thrusday afternoon, so the mapping will be from 9am Friday, and then flying back Sunday. The problem with mapping after 5pm in October will be the light, as I am sure by then in Glasgow it will be dark. As long as there is light I am happy to carry on.

Best regards,

Leighton
FC Performance

___________________________________________________________

Guys can I suggest, where possible we have a pre-meet face to face. This would allow those who might struggle with timings meet the other guys and perhaps we can help each other out, end of the day Flea only needs the car not the owner so one of us could help another out by taking their car from A to B to get mapped.

Indeed this involves trust and respect and thankfully H2YPER isn't down for this buy ! On serious note if I can help a fellow fccuk -er out then I will.

What a great thread

I'm watching with interest to see what happens.

I could probably step in last minute.

Ross

There is a space buddy I'm sure

i should have my name up there tomorrow

I know, the lengths I'll goto to get my post count up!

1.Kennyf - Deposit Paid
2.Sparkyman - Deposit Paid
3.rAzOr_20vt - Deposit Paid

Getting there chaps

So more importantly are we taking leighton out for dinner, maybe some wine, some beers, some banter ,some bucky, strippers , then along to see the sights up from anderston, maybe not in that order

Oh, and the Kebab

Be rude not to really , plus is the kebab not part of the anderston all inclusive package?

Something wrong with bonnie Ayrshire..?. Pint 'n' a pie package lol

Kebab is an extra as you well know Kenny

Nothing wrong with Ayrshire*




























































* if I was on a lie detector, at this point it would go beeep!!

I'm torn loyalty to my homeland or my current abode! How about I just referee the bun fight?

all right big boy !!

nice tights, thats the way aryshire rolls

Does your loyalty card not get you a free kebab now?

Last time you loaned showed me it, you were only 1 away from a free midget.

So how would that work? Would they get one your size or would it be taller than you?

Ross

Steamer stole my card and used all my points on tracy fae govan

She was called Kylie and was from Paisley!!! Had to swipe card twice as it was blocked in her slot!

Oh dear god , my thread, my beautiful thread!

Sorry to have to stear back on topic ( only for a minute though ). Has anyone heard from Skipper. As it looks like we might need to fill his place and I have someone asking if we have space.

I'll PM those not down as paid, as we've all been in it from the start so don't want to take a space back without trying to get confirmation.

Ok back to FCCUK own episode of Band of Gold! ( we're not classy enough to get Billie Piper!)

The_G , Skipper69 & Goldywagon, you've got a pm lads.

i will be sending my payment for this an the rest of the money for my turbo an intercooler to flea in an hour or so , just waiting for the girlfriend to send it for me

You trust your girlfriend way to much buddy, Janice would be off to the silverburn by now

lol she understands how long i have been waiting to get back on the road

1.Kennyf - Deposit Paid
2.Sparkyman - Deposit Paid
3.rAzOr_20vt - Deposit Paid
4.THE_G - Deposit Paid

Well in Gordon

All apologies if I've came across pushy regarding payment, I've just been trying to keep the momentum going to ensure this doesn't fall down at final hurdle.

As we stand just now we just need Skipper to say yay or nae and Goldywagon to confirm he will indeed be available for daylight mapping.

If anybody does need to pull out then the sooner we know we can get the space filled and with no hard feelings.

someone needs to crack the whip kenny might aswell be you lol

All after speaking with Leighton and the fact that neither of us have heard from Skipper we've concluded that he is bowing out. Someone in Scotlad had expressed interest direct with Leighton so they have stepped in and have paid there deposit.

So we still have one spot unpaid but hoping Goldywagon will be able to work into the mapping sessions which for practical safety reasons must be completed during daylight hours.

Lads, don't shoot the messenger but one of you Saturday Boys(gay dance trio! ) may need to think about changing days if Leighton thinks he'll struggle to get you all done ( must resist).

I'll see if I can change thinks about

i can do either or im not fussy

All looks like Leighton will be here on the Thursday ( (am flight) am so there is spots on Thursday so in real terms if anybody else wants a one off oppertunity to get mapped then drop me a pm ASAP and save yourself a commute to Brizzle!

Guys if anyone already in wants to jig to Thursday let me know.

we could take him out on the town on thursday night

Nice logical scottish thinking... get the guy who will be live mapping your car wrecked the night before!!

Ross

lol yeh maybe not ! im on best behaviour anyways this car is getting me skint again

Goldywagon can you give me a shout buddy.

Ok guys Goldywagon is unable to get mapped due to work commitments.

So we definately have a space , spread word to the coupes in the Scotland & North see who wants to take advanatage of our globe trotting Flea?

This is a 1st and no doubt the last for a long while that we will have Leighton come to us so in all honesty anyone even considering a map in the near future would be mad not to jump on this like a tramp eating chips

When is this happening, and how much would it be?

Alfa 155 Q4, 3" exhaust, decat, CDA, Tipo inlet cam, (as yet undecided most likely larger/uprated turbo).

Hi it is from the 21st to the 23rd and price will vary depending on turbo. Prices are listed in this thread but an example is stage 3 is £275 + £15 travel costs for flea.

Any more info just give me a shout.

Cheers

Cool. Couldn't commit at the moment anyway, as I'm still in Germany with a broken turbo and no new one yet sourced!

Agh no worries Ade , what power were/are you ulooking to run?

Guys tried to push the mapping session on the Alfa forum but only their sponsors are permitted to push group buys as such.

Well as much as reasonably possible I would guess.

I would imagine 250-280 would be realistic with the standard cooler and internals etc?

Date is fast approaching

Remember folks Leighton is up and extra day really so there is space to jump in on this .

Ok folks, a wee update - Leighton has had to cancel.






Only kidding! - He will be staying at the Hilton in Bellshill ML4 3JQ, we will take our cars there and leave for mapping were we can hang about the hotel or make provisions to be picked up and then return.

Times will vary so no hard and fast rule.

It's like the run up to christmas

You prick!! S**t myself when i read that lol

Baaaahhhaaaaaa did you shart in your femme fresh?

The Flea has landed!

It's going to be an eventful few days with a cracking finish on the Sunday.

Your right Kenny!!

My brief will be handed over tomorrow afternoon

sorry lads im out , car still isnt running yet i have a couple of things still needing done and havent got the intercooler plumbed in either yet so will be a waste of time

ahwell

What is out standing Gordon?

Does that mean he's loosing his deposit?

Ross

still no ebv arrived kenny tried calling the ebay dude yesterday but the shop rang out ... rodger reckons my icv needs cleaned as when i drove the car home it decided to sit at 5k rpm the whole journey , so im going to clean that out today

still need to tax the thing and swap tyres over i put on my old alloys to the ones im using just now (i forgot my old alloys required spacers and im never using those things again ! )

if cleanging the icv doesnt clear up that prob then not sure what il do

main problem is i had it in my mind this was happening this time next month, heads up my hole with everything just now

probably will lose the deposit ross , i will email leighton later on today and see if i can still send him money and bank the mapping session and travel down another time

My car is now on the hands of Flea...

Ooooooo sounds painful!!!! Hope he's recovered by next Saturday when i go down to him!

Snigger snigger School boy humour , never gets tired!

Needs to be recovered before that, I'm there next Friday

2 down 2 to go!!

Ross

Mine finished ronnie and ross to go then roll on Rolling Road

You will not get Leighton back unless there is a quarter bag off kola cubes left outside the govan subway station next to the palm tree outside the Ritz hotel...Or we keep him!!

All the mapping fuelling/checks done by flea.

No figures as the rolling road wasn't working upon arrival.

Ross

I'd just like to say thanks for Leighton with his efforts on all the cars he mapped over the 3 day visit.

I don't think anything went quite to plan but Leighton gave 100% to get all the cars to their best. We won't know our power figures untill next week at best as our RR day fell flat due to the rollers being chuffed

Again from me and I'm sure the rest of the lads a massive thankyou to Leighton

Agree with you Kenny, big thanks to Leighton

Took my car out for a spin tonight, OMG what a differnce , I'm so glad I took this opportunity to get a Flea map. Was worried about the charge cooler, no need as Leighton pointed out it was doing a fine job. Brilliant job matey




Also , this bit hurts more then you can imagine..

Big thanks to Kenny for setting this whole thing up, done a fine job matey now get rid of that stupid hat !!

Lol cheers Ronnie, I'm now sporting a striped used condom look hat!
