BEC setup/mapping scotland

Anyone know of a rolling road place who deal with Becs north of the border? I will be needing a pre IVA emissions setup then a post IVA dynojet and rolling road setup on my 4xv carbed R1 engine.

Also does anyone have any recommendations for a geometry setup? I've used progrip in bonnybridge before on my tintop and he was pretty good.

cheers
Steve

Not sure about mapping / setup... but for geometry what about Kenny Brown's in Hillington? Im planning on taking my MNR to him in the near future for a corner weighting and geometry setup.

Where abouts you based?

I'm in Bridge of weir not too far from kenny browns.

Im a little apprehensive about taking it there as the last time I had a tintop in there he seemed a bit off and seemed a bit put out about me giving him the work. Granted he had a bit of nightmare doing my clio 182 timing belt with a couple of bolts shearing, but it wasn't as though he was doing it for nowt.

I then took the clio back for alignment and he had it up on the ramps for less than 10mins, i didnt see any proper equipment in use and he charged £60 for the privilege.

Pro grip in bonnybridge were superb, I had a full 4 wheel alignment done on an st170, he spent a fair bit of time getting it spot on, talked me through all the adjustments that were made and didnt charge the full whack as the rear only needed a slight tweak. Just a shame they are over the wrong side of scotland.

mmmhhhh not good to hear about Kenny Brown's. I've heard really good things about him, but I think your experience will make me give him a miss.

A few of my pals with scooby's have used progrip and always seem to be very happy with them.

Bonnybridge isnt that far away, bit further than hillington tho, but if the service is better is a no brainer....

Im down Greenock way so not far from you.... might see you about at some point if your ever down this way.

Yep not to far!

Dont get me wrong, if you do a search for kenny browns you will get loads of good feedback, maybe it was my clio that pi**ed the guy off! It had the same effect on me to be honest
