Any input, as I though from what I'd read on here it was common practice with you guys?
Thanks

Jim - how far are you from Birmingham mate? For a remap (dyno incl) I'd go visit Andrew & Jonathan at Viezu in Bromsgrove (Worcestershire). They remap Supercars daily and eat serious performance for breakfast even during the weekends. They did a lot of my mate's cars and in all were giggling like little girls when driving out of their shop.
No need to use other boxster car's map, they'll use your current one and modify/use it at its best potential - trust the guy
You can always revert back to original mapping if you need etc...
Tell them Fred in Shanghai sent you and pass my regards
