Mk5 gti starting issue

[r5gtt]

I was reading this off their website 

The TFSi K03 based AXX BWA engines can be tuned upto:

Stage 1 custom remap             230-250 hp        290-310 lbft
Stage 1+ custom remap           255-260 hp        335-350 lbft
Stage 2  custom remap            265-275 hp        315-330 lbft
Stage 2+ custom remap           275-290 hp        355-360 lbft

Wow that's sh*te for all you have replaced mod wise no offence intended  thought a stage two would hit you around 300 mark with similar torque?.
Something doesn't add up as I'm reading people with stage 2 300+ or am I missing something here.

2 different variants I think are confusing you.

Gti(ko3) rough idea of figures

Stage 1 240-255 bhp 290-310+ftlbs
Stage 2 255-270 bhp 310-330+ftlbs
Stage 2+ 270+bhp 320+ftlbs

Gti ed30 (ko4)

Stage 1 290-310 bhp
Stage 2 310-330 bhp
Stage 2+ 330+ bhp

All these are just rough numbers

I only have a gti (ko3)

Are they taking out  then?.

[Beej]

Yeah they are all custom numbers. Apr and revo are really generic maps, so number are normally lower, but mine are well off.

R tech have had stage 1 numbers stronger than my 2+ ones!

Annnnnnnnnnnnnd anyway back to the topic. What it like cleaning the cylinder on the fsi engine?

Yeah, sorry about that, sidetracked too easily!

It's a bit of job removing the intake manifold supposedly. I payed someone to do it, as the weather was poor and I already had a fault on the intake to which I didn't want to completely fail.

There is no real way of removing the built up carbon deposits with chemicals etc, needs to be done by scraping or media blasting

Sorry buddy lost connection 

It's a nightmare to do I'll send you a link.

Two ways to do this or pay to have it done £350+

[Clgale1988]

Would this do the job theres a company local to me who does something called Terraclean have a read says removes carbon build up etc

http://www.paleclassics.co.uk/terraclean.html

[Beej]

No, no chemical will shift the built up carbon, need to get in there and scrape or have it blasted off with walnut shells or similar media

[Clgale1988]

So why would they say it removes all build up in engines

[Beej]

There was someone on here before who payed for it to be done, and done before and after dyno's, and I think he also stuck a camera in to see it, and it made no difference what so ever. If you have a look at some of the videos on you tube, and even the ones posted earlier you can clearly see how gummed up and how much effort is required to remove the build up.

[Clgale1988]

Yea did see that earlier seems like a right ballache to sort out

[r5gtt]

I dont know if it doesn't help the car as per what Beej says but I'm going to give it a shot as I've heard and read good things about de coking but it is a pain to scrape the gunk out as you can see.
