Did mine. Add blue delete and add 20 hp. They would have put on more hp but i was worried as i have never remapped/chipped/tweaked anything before but it was the add blue i wanted removed. JM services did mine with the files supplyied by the derv doctor. They save the original ecu file as well so you can go back to factory spec at any time. Happy with mine. The extra 20 hp has made a big difference on hills but hopefully not enough to do damage.

Think it was £700 for the delete and remap but i cant remember exactly. They came to the farm one day. Plugged in there laptop and read my ecu. Took about 5 mins on farm. They then emailed the file to the derv doctor for him to doctor. They said it took him a morning to edit it. He emails it back to them and they came back and uploaded it on to my ecu. Took about 10 mins on farm but the whole process took a month because i had to wait for them to be back in my area. I phoned the derv doctor to get the details. He put me in touch with JM Services. If you phone him he would tell you who does your area. He gave me the opition of mailing the ecu direct to him to do but the tractor would be down the whole time it was away plus if it came back faulty id be knackered.

Do you still have the tractor?
How has it been?

Good morning.
I was McD in a past life but had to change names due to a password problem.
Yes still have the tractor. It's got 11364 hours now. On its 3rd set of tyres and 3rd set of half shafts(its a bit of a mystery why its eatinghalf shafts since 9k hours). Apart from new bearings in a alternator at 10k hours and a water pump at 3k hours the engine hasn't been touched. The only work done on the transmission is a new 4wd clutchpack at 9k hours. It's been a excellent tractor so far. That Could change at any time of course.

Owner driven and serviced since 150 hours. Was dealer demo before that.

Thanks for that. Would you be happy enough that the map hasn't caused any of those issues? Considering doing mine but warey of putting too much on. Another 20hp was as much as I was thinking of.

No I put most of the problems down to the fact my tractor does a rediculas amount of road work. But really for the hours its done, I have absolutely nothing to complain about. Not sure if its luck or judgement.

My only advice would be use someone that knows what they are doing. Done incorrectly, it could cause a lot of problems. The derv doctor was spot on with mine.
