09/01/2014 14:17:35 ZandF-tuning Hello all Im Mark from ZandF Tuning Just enrolled my TF for Silverstone, looking forward to the day! To mention for those who dont know - I was one of the factory engineers behind the K series cars (ZR/TF etc) and now offer a uniquely effective ecu upgrade service for the four cylinder mems 3 models.. This gives better throttle response/midrange and around 8-10% power/economy gains.. ZandF remaps are now mandatory in all MG Car Club Trophy race cars for 2014 - I can offer to upgrade your engine to the same tune level (still road legal/emissions and reliability unaffected)!! The service is on offer at a discount £200 rate (normal charge is around £239), with the process taking 10-15 minutes between sessions including a diagnostic check.. Just post if interested, or email through the ZandF website.. See you there!

09/01/2014 17:21:08 John Cohen [b]K upgrade[/b] Hi Mark Very good to see you're coming to Silverstone. I can testify what a marked difference your upgrade makes--you did mine about 18 months ago. Noticeable improvement in responsiveness and performance all the way through. I'm delighted with it. John

The remap makes such a difference to the way the car drives - much more responsive and just pulls all the way to 7450rpm. Well worth the money.

09/01/2014 21:41:22 Wildcat Hi Mark, any chance you can tweak my ZS 180 ? I hear you can work wonders.

09/01/2014 21:44:16 ZandF-tuning Im afraid can only support K four cylinder at present [QUOTE=Wildcat]Hi Mark, any chance you can tweak my ZS 180 ? I hear you can work wonders.[/QUOTE]

11/01/2014 16:16:33 Grumpyzs Hi Mark. I would definitely be interested in this. I was going to be talking to you soon anyway, having just had headgasket done with a couple of other changes by Dave from Derby. Question....As yet I haven't been able to change exhaust from standard. Would this make any difference to mapping if I can't get it done before?

11/01/2014 20:48:06 Grumpyzs Ok. Do you need to know for definate now or nearer the time and do you take cards or do I have to bring cash and keep it very separate from Sunday night beer money?!!

13/01/2014 17:03:15 ZandF-tuning I'll have the equipment with me for those interested at the track, card payments can be made through the website Road Upgrades page, or cash on the day if preferred.

15/01/2014 15:09:58 AGoaty Hi Mark. :) I have a 2004 Mk2 MG ZS 1.6 and would welcome another few BHP especially if it retains the economy as it is, or better! :rolleyes: Can the ECU be posted to you as it's a 3 hour drive for me? What kind of increase are we looking at on this car? Cheers, Andrew.

16/01/2014 18:55:11 ZandF-tuning Yes Can remap a posted ecu, or even supply another ready mapped unit set to plug and play.. The 1.6 remap gives better response/midrange and 5-8% power and economy gain.

16/01/2014 19:37:11 AGoaty If you remap a different ECU won't this affect the alarm? I thought they were all matched together. If this is possible, how much is it for a posted one? I assume you'll want the old one in exchange.

If this is possible, how much is it for a posted one? I assume you'll want the old one in exchange.[/QUOTE] We've developed a setting to enable automatic alarm matching when installed. Normal 1.6 remap charge is £219, can provide remapped ecu at £299 - £80 can be refunded on later exchange if required.

23/01/2014 18:45:46 Grumpyzs Hi Mark Got things sorted, well for now anyway, so can you book me a slot please. ZS120 couple of minor mods. Would like the 98 map please. Cash on the day. Thanks Simon

29/01/2014 09:56:04 mgfpete Hi Mark Please can you book me in. I have a 2001 MGF VVC which I believe is suitable to be upgraded. Many thanks Peter Taylor

12/03/2014 21:48:39 mgnminiman Can I book you to do my TF 160 please, although I don't want the extra noises, it pops and bangs enough already!
