ESL or apexi is also available and the most cost effective
Simtec-alcatec/syvecs gunna cost 1k + lol and you can double it for syvecs
What you hoping to gain, and what mods pre map?

Buy a cheap simtec. They pop up on 22b,Scooby net often enough. Then you can get the new soft wear put on them for around 80 quid a think then can be mapped better

It's it worth it thou buying secondhand then updating it then fitting and getting it mapped ?
Then you can have brand new one mapped for £900

This is just for future reference
I think it already has a 3 port on it and it nocks lil pops out now and again and still has the cat in just don't know if it's been mapped think it may have had a front mount at some point as all the air pipes are missing out the wing
And those 2 extra switches must do summit lol

The new firm ware gives better closed loop idle and various other nice parameters to map with, worth the fee. Waiting time is down now as we'll to around 3-4 weeks.
Not sure if a brand new simtek would come with the new firmware in already.
