Forgive me if I mess this up - I am, to coin a popular retailer's phrase, a 911 Virgin. And a Forum Virgin to boot...

Anyway, is there anyone out there who can advise me on the efficacy of "Chipping and Remapping" my 1994 993 Tiptronic? I love the car but would dearly like the power to come in earlier than the current mark of around 4500 rpm. I had been recommended a chip-chap (!) called Wayne Schofield of Chip Wizard nr Manchester by Jaz, specialists in Wembley, who thought he was the Mut's Nuts.... But I cancelled my appointment as it was just before we moved down to Devon.

Is there someone locally who is experienced and knowledgeable in the matter? What does it cost and does it make a tangible difference to performance/fuel consumption (for better or worse) etc...?

Also, what wheel/suspension changes do you recommend for my car? I am currently still running on the original 16" rims and as far as I know no changes have been made by my successors to the set up. It runs very smoothly in a straight line but at speed gets a bit spongey, and drifts a bit, and in corners it is less precise and flat than perhaps it could be. Ideas?

Any help gratefully received.Thanks,

Robbies

Robbies, it's possibly worth contacting Andy Moss at Honiton and ask for his opinion. He is one of the (few) independent specialists we have here in the South West. His number is 07762 244477. He may not be able to help, but may well know a man who can.
 
Thanks for the contact, Gary. Had a nice chat with Andy yesterday and will run the car down to him so he can have a good look at it next week.
