Have you got someone lined up for the rebuild. Please let it be close to me so I can come over and take a look.

Tim at RX motors in Dorset.  

A bastid journey for me towing a trailer, but I liked what I saw when I went down there.  He seems to be the 1st gen guru - drives one himself!

Rotechnics are much nearer, but they\'d want something like 50 grand.

Low comp & water injection mappable computer + a FAT pipe I reckon.
Now with added boost!  :burnout

about 10/12 miles South of Reading. Rotechniks is probably Bill\'s nearest established Specialist. However, I have had work done on the FC and the Gen 1 by Tim and RX motors isn\'t too bad to get to from here.

I have used rotechnics once...not again.

I am lucky enough to work 2 miles from Carl\'s workshop, so if I ever get the car running again I\'ll use him for anything I can\'t do myself.

I however remove engines etc by myself and do my own EFI as I don\'t trust anyone in the UK to be able to tune the motor the way I want it.

However I accept that I am fussier than 99.7% of the people out there.

trade? Lord no, I\'m a telecomms consultant (CEng MIEE). My current customer is based in Newbury.

I import innovate widebands, but that\'s as part of my hobby of emancipating the petrolheads of this world. If for £240 you can avoid most of those nasty trips to tuners every time you mod something on your car that\'s a great freedom. I charge close to cost on them. OMEX want over £400 for the same box.

All I need is to crack PPP sensing and then tuners will become completely redundant as the car will tune itself :-)

I\'ve never bought anything off Carl and he bought a megasquirt off me for one of his projects and has a demo wideband. All the other reputable rotary tuners in this country also have one of my units.

I have no idea what these \'rumours\' are.

I\'m afraid I have no idea what an inovative wideband thingee is.
Fuel/ignition computer?

Do I need one?
