Top quality products and service
I bought a Haldex controller and harness on back order from here. It turned up way sooner than I had expected and was made to a great quality. It was quick and easy to install and despite a few minor problems I had an extremely quick response explaining some things which put everything right. Would highly recommend

Contacted Adam regarding some ecu work as he’s local to myself and decided to go round and let him carry out the work turned out the ecu was dead and he was more than happy to supply me with a new one and was also telling me about some upcoming projects, also explaining how the Haldex controller worked as it’s something I will be purchasing in the future

Cost effective RPM conversion
Just purchased a rev counter converter for my Mk2 VR swapped GTi, very reasonably priced and uses CAN hi/lo to retain my stock mk2 cluster but have the revs resting correctly. A neat solution and they sent me a link for the wiring which was great.
Can’t argue with the price to retain the stock set up and not have to try to butcher the dash to get R32 clocks in.
Many thanks

Thanks for your updated review. Sorry about the issues with the courier originally but I’m glad we could sort it out and get a replacement out for you.
This guy saved my bacon!
This guy saved my bacon a few times already. Not just by supplying the parts. To finish my car and finally get my 4x4 working again... But also with troubleshooting some other problems i was having.... If i could i would give him 11 stars!
