cost of JE remaps

so £700 plus for the FFRR

is this because they think FFRR owners are loaded so they can charge what they think the market will bear?

i was thinking of having one done.....but not at that price.

Surly it depends on what's done?
I found another company doing remaps for all sorts of vehicles and for your FF was they quote £375 for the remap + £75 for the EGR removal + £75 for Diesel Partical Filter removal + £50 for Speed Limiter Adjustment = £575 inc VAT

JE Engineering specialise in Land Rover and are the best with these engines so an extra £125 isn't too bad really, if all the above is included in JE's price. Wink

Tee hee me too!

I had one of my other RR's JE mapped & what a result well worth it - but it was on offer at the time. Not sure the 4.4 V8 diesel needs it though???

Don't mind the cost too much if its worth it

United Kingdom 2013 Range Rover Vogue SE SDV8 Santorini Black

They're only open 9-5 Monday to Friday as well - that put me off more than the cost, so I went with Bell Auto Services instead. Got lots of good reviews at the time and IIRC, Pete gave me a £100 forum discount too as there had been a previous group buy Thumbs Up

Looks like they do the 4.4 by post to!
Not sure I'd want to take my own ECU out though !

United Kingdom 2007 Range Rover Supercharged Supercharged Java Black

JE remaps get tested thoroughly on real roads and adjusted accordingly so that they will run better outside of a "we knocked it up on a dyno" approach some companies take. The super cheap remaps are often done without being run on the actual cars, they just tweak a few things like boost levels and fuelling and hope the ECU adapts. I highly doubt JE would risk their reputation by doing the same thing.

If they do it by post how can it be a remap for your individual vehicle?? It will just be a generic file uploaded to it surely? FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

they send you a ecu reader, you read your map then email it to them and they then send you your adjusted map which you upload to your range..the ecu reader is then sent back to them.. ... - .- -.

Surely you only need an individual map if you have changed from OEM parts though?

2011 Range Rover Vogue SE TDV8 Stornoway Grey

i see JE have reduced their price. down from £740 to £695.
for £350 or £400 I would do it.
£695 is still way too high in my view.....but if some people are paying that, then good luck to them.

£700 for extra bhp seems a lot of money when you consider that a tdv8 can provide you with a fair bit of power in its standard form..if its for an eco remap then you would have to do a fair few miles to re-coup that kind on money....
anyway in my experience , eco remaps dont work.. ... - .- -.

totally agree ECO maps are Rollocks Evil or Very Mad

the extra Torque from a good map is addictive though Far to many gone...
