    First ever dealing with them - parts order - good price; efficient service and delivery.

    Thanks

    have used them and never would again! re-mapped my 20v turbo and 3000 miles later melted a piston.local specialist diagnosed running too lean under high boost.the map was totally wrong.[8(]


    since then i've spoken to numerous other people all with the same problem.i'm sure he is very good on other engines but 20v turbo mapping stick to jabba ,i have.the same spec engine mapped at jabba was 349bhp stealth only managed 298bhp!!


    just for what its worth!;)

    Hmm, first bad word ive ever heard about Stealth, particularly with 20v tuning. Vince always maps to a safe limit.

    I wouldn't use anyone else for VR6's thats for sure! I've always had good dealings with them and they ain't mis-diagnosed anything for me! [:D]

    I have only had gearbox rebuilds and rolling road set up from Stealth, pleased with the service.

    Gearbox did fail after being rebuilt, but was sorted without fuss, I even had a free 1.5 hr set up on the rollers for my trouble.

    Have to laugh at
    :lol:

    Biggest waste of time in the tuning world is comparing different rolling roads.

    3000 miles thats a fair way, how you driving it? car would lean out on fuel at the top end no? ie when your pushing hard

    Vince is a gem .... [:*:]

    Have used loads of so called experts I can truely say Stealth has a sound knowledge base in most things VAG. If Vince/Grahame are not sure they will not BS you they will tell you straight and if a job is worth doing they do it right..

    (get off soap box)

    Im editing this post as i now know the full story.


    badgerb --- >


    Why dont you log in using your real log-on details and tell the FULLstory of what went on..... you were told that they could not map it due to things being not right on the engine and the damage that caused your blow up was done long before the car even got to stealth. You were told to take the car away before summit went wrong with it.


    Stop talking 5hit. [:x]

    It is.


    If you could check IP add then you would prob match them up to one or maybe two user names from this forum. Also the name inthe users profile is totalpoo as that person had/has nothing to do with this,if anything he done them a favour........

    How do you know it was not an injector that failed etc? For what its worth a 20vT with a KO4 could never reach 349bhp! ever....the turbo and injectors are maxed out at 300bhp. Jabba are the worst at melting kit!!! trust me......i know a few people who will backup this fact!.
