		Subject: Enging Tuner || New Question Sender's Name: Tristan Gynn Question: Hi there, I have a VW Transporter T4 which i have had a BAM 1.8 20v Turbo installed into it. It is running QPENG MBE management, i would like to see wot power it is putting out but also make sure it is mapped properly. Are you able to map MBE systems?? Cheers Answer: Hi Tristan - We have previously mapped MBE, although their systems can vary as to quality. We can certainly test, and check it out from there?
		Subject: Enging Tuner || New Question Sender's Name: Toby Question: Hi Alan, i currently have a robin reliant engined trike. The engine although in good condition simply does not have the power and torque. i have been told by the person who built the frame that the 1.6 pinto engine and box should slot in with little changes. Just so happens i have such an engine and a type 9 box in the garage. Would you guys be able to do the swap (as it may require moving engine mount brackets, etc etc) And if so.. any idea of ballpark costs for such work. Thanks Answer: Hi Toby - The Reliant engine is actually quite tuneable, as it's used by the 750 motor club for racing. It may be worth investigating tuning your current engine rather than start again with another one. The Pinto engine is much heavier, and quite sluggish. If you're interested, drop in sometime, and we'll discuss it.
		Subject: Enging Tuner || New Question Sender's Name: mark mcmahon Question: hi alan how u doing. im looking to put a set of bike throttle bodys on my pug gti6 and was wondering if i would need to do any upgrades first the engine is stock at the moment the only things ive done is put a green cotton cone filter on and straight through exhaust from the cat back with a remus back box. ive sourced a set of carbs that were on a gti6 so before i buy them just wanted to check if i can bolt them on my engine as it is. thanks mate. Answer: Well, you can, although I'm not sure if it's sustainable. If it's a road car it'll almost certainly need a cat test to pass an MOT and you'll struggle to be able to meet that standard. In any event, the stock engine management won't cope with it.
