I'd do some research first there are loads of good reviews of willfeild but also a few bad ones.

When i went to him he claimed my head gasket had gone ( brand new engine just run in, 500 miles) and charged me 60 quid for not doing anything. I got home, took the head off to find a perfectly fine head gasket! There was another mini owner I know who came away from there with it running so rich that the plugs would soot up after only a few days and would need to be cleaned for the engine to run. I also know a girl who took her mini there for him to fit a electronic dizzy and put it on the rollers to get it set up. When she collected the mini it would just about move. On inspection the timing was miles out. My neighbour took his mk3 golf there because it was running badly, he tried charging him £300 for a new ecu when it was actually a £8 water temp sensor. But thats just my experience and a few people I know, I've heard loads of people recommend him.

When you charge people you should be getting it right! Any way we're going off topic, will be good to see your power results.
