That was different.... that was a road trip of epic nature, not 600miles up and down the M1  :innocent:

I've got that route saved on my todo list Rich - surprised it slipped your mind :drinking:

Let's face it, if you don't like to drive, you're in the wrong car and gives you chance to do a proper back to back comparison.

+1 for the above longs we've not got to drive through central London as that boils my p*ss.

As long as you go to a reputable company not some back street cowboy, isn't a remap just a remap, there's only so many parameters that can be changed and tweaked,

Friendly discussion remember ,Iv not coming me on here to step on anyone's toes. But is there any hard evidence that the R-tech maps are superior and worth travelling the length of the country to obtain.

Hard evidence is a tricky thing to claim  as a lot of this is subjective - people hold R-Tech in high regard because they're very happy with how the map feels.

I agree, you're getting into murky waters if you say "R-Tech's maps are better" than another tuners.

However, when there are so many positive reviews going back a long long way, their maps are proven to be safe and strong, and there are thousands of happy customers, including those who have switched to R-Tech from another tuner's map, it's hard not to see them as one of the best if not the best option.

There are lots of good mappers out there, but they may be less of a known quantity than a mapper that has built their rep on the back of a proven product over the years.

I know Shark do good maps for TFSIs. Along with Unicorn, and Vince at Stealth.

I'm on an R-Tech map, after doing loads of research and asking loads of questions, and it's brilliant - I know I made the right choice. I'd always recommend them.

Loads of great TFSI tuners out there, but none offer patented TIV mapping for smoothest graphs, free traction control mapping, 5 maps with switching. . . As part of £300 price. Happy to be proven wrong if there is another well respected tuner that offers all that  :happy2:

I'd travel a day each way for a map. . . Then again I've travelled 200+ miles each way for a dyno day  :laugh:
