Workshop

Bradford · BD8 9NL

The garage

Seven disciplines. One workshop.

Security, tracking, performance, emissions and lighting handled under one roof, by the same technicians, on the same vehicle. No subcontracting and no sending your car across town.

Ghost immobiliser

Ultimate vehicle security

Modern theft does not need your key. Relay boxes amplify the signal from your hallway, emulators clone a transponder in seconds, and a laptop on the OBD port can add a fresh key to the car. A Ghost defeats all three, because none of them know your sequence.

  • Hidden, wireless protection
  • Prevents key cloning & theft
  • Keeps your vehicle 100% stock
  • Insurance approved
  • Peace of mind, every time

  1. Authorised key

    You unlock and start the car exactly as you always have. Nothing about the driving experience changes.

  2. Ghost armed

    Behind the scenes the immobiliser is waiting for your personal button sequence before the engine will run.

  3. Vehicle protected

    Without the sequence the car will not move, even with a cloned key, a relay device or a tool on the OBD port.

Performance & diagnostics

We log it, then we map it

A generic file flashed in twenty minutes is a gamble with someone else's engine. We read your original ECU, log the car under load, write the calibration around what your specific vehicle actually does, then validate it on the road.

  • Original ECU file archived before anything is written
  • Knock, EGT, lambda and boost deviation monitored throughout
  • Stage 1 to Stage 3, plus economy maps for fleets and high mileage
  • Written specification sheet for your insurer

How it works

From registration plate to keys back

The same four steps whether you are booking a Ghost install, a remap or a diagnostic session.

  1. Send your reg

    Give us the registration and a short description of what you want. We confirm exactly what is possible on your vehicle and what it costs before you travel.

  2. Health check

    On arrival we scan every module and check the basics. If something needs sorting first, you hear it from us before any work starts, not after.

  3. The work

    One vehicle at a time, in our bay on Girlington Road. You get a call if anything changes, and nothing chargeable happens without your say-so.

  4. Handover

    We walk you through what was done, hand over the documentation and, where relevant, set your immobiliser sequence with you before you drive away.

  • Two RS3s taken off my street. Not mine.

    There had been a run of thefts round here and my insurer was getting twitchy about renewing. Nav talked me through exactly how the Ghost works and where he would hide it, and did not try to upsell me a tracker...

  • Actually logged my car instead of flashing a generic file

    I had been quoted cheaper elsewhere but nobody else mentioned datalogging. Nav drove it, logged it, wrote the map, then drove it again and adjusted. The difference in the mid range is night and day and it pulls...

    Stage 1 Remap

  • Found in ninety minutes what two garages missed

    Intermittent limp mode, no consistent code, and I had already paid for a boost sensor and a turbo actuator that changed nothing. Navs put a scope on it and showed me the trace where a chafed loom behind the eng...
