GBE Round Up February 2018
It's been a busy few months here in Bridgwater! We've had some amazing cars in and out of the workshop and dyno. Here are some of our highlights. We had a mini dyno day back at the start of February, you can read more on that blog here. Here is the full video of Rusty Slider on the dyno: What a fun car that was to map! James is still smitten with the Audi S5 he did the power run on that day. We also had 2 other special cars in for mapping. Both running Link Plug-In ECU's, we had this amazing Long...
Saturday Funday at GBE!
We had a busy day at the workshop on Saturday with a number of different cars and kits to be playing with. A few highlights of the day include: VW T4 Van Remap This van came in from one of our friends for a quick remap to blow the cobwebs out and get the best out of the engine.

We see gains of up to 40bhp on...

It's simple really, they are stronger and they'll take more power. Ok, I lied a bit it's not that simple at all, but...
Audi A4 18.t (20v) Big turbo Link ECU daily
Grants daily driver uncovered in this special blog! Having owned the car for 2 years, Grant decided to see what was possible with a stock car and aftermarket standalone ECU. In this case a Link Fury. Grant took the car off the road 18 months ago, it's taken this long to get it started/running again! We are fully subscribing to the Rat Rod/Sleeper look on this car. Grant has modified the cars original loom to fit the Link and even added some additional bits, like eThrottle and cruise control. The idea is to get the car running like a factory ECU but...
