Latest Life110 Map - experiences ?
Discussion
I had it installed in autumn last year on my otherwise standard Pure, one of the first to get it, so not sure if it's changed since then.
The rate at which it reaches big MPH on b-roads means that the suspension needs more control. So the Pure is no longer otherwise standard.
In September on a 2,500 mile drive around Europe, including many Alps passes and 5 laps of the Nordschleife, it returned 38mpg.
On road the power curve is smooth, fun and predictable.
On track it hangs with the big boys; track mode is hugely and grin-inducingly immersive.
I can't fault it, but equally I haven't driven any other aftermarket maps, so can't comment on characteristic comparisons.

My Alp was remapped with the Active Motion by Dave P at Life110 back in June last year and I'd completely agree with all of Jacobyte's well-described comments.
Mine followed the original Life110 remap by TRS which had been wiped following a fuel level sensor update recall. As the Active Motion remap didn't involve a dyno test at the time of its installation, my own feedback is anecdotal but on the run back down the M40 it certainly felt like it was releasing more power, particularly towards the top end of the range eg. accelerating from eg. 60-70 upwards...
At the time, I noted to Dave P that with the AM remap, driving in Normal felt more like it used to feel when driving in Sport, and Sport felt even more responsive. So it didn't surprise me at all to see that some weeks later on, the figures released on Life110's website for the Active Motion remap claimed 320 bhp and more relevantly, 400 Nm.
