Default Bluefin vs Custom Remap

My dyno results this weekend showed that I needed a remap as the car is running lean. The car currently has 17% reduced pulley, Alta CAI, GRS IC, JCW exhaust and in time I will add a manifold.

I am wondering what the arguement is for Bluefin vs a custom remap, discuss!

Forget Bluefin... A number of engines have gone pop with generic maps... You'd be better off with a custom map to suit your car...

I need a custom map. I'm actually going to be calling 1320 tomorrow to get some work done so will ask if they can do a remap too

That has to be the shortest bit of persuasion in history - but custom map vote from me too. After the rolling road the testing 'bod' said mine was running with the right mix right through the rev range.
