Just a couple of points for clarification.

The work done with mine on Friday was regarding updating the map for DSG cars to overcome the programmed torque limit within the ECU for the DSG box, SC feel this is still well within the limits for the box.

With mine adding the Milltek added about 10bhp to the top end and have now reached the maximum achievable with the addition of a HPFP.

So if you are a DSG superchips customer getting the new revised map, as tested on my car, you will see massive improvements over the previous version.

For manual based cars there are two options available, either a standard map or a revised one where 1st & 2nd gears are "rained" in a bit to help with drivablablity.

From what SC have just told me I believe Cocopop's has an older intermediate map which is why he didn't see that higher figures, from my experience I saw around 10bhp less on the DynoDynamics rollers compaired the Superchips Maha LP3000 rollers.

just found this in my junk mail :-



Morning & Merry Christmas

 

Superchips are pleased to be able to release an upgrade for the VW Golf Edition30/Pirelli 2.0 T 230bhp models.  This upgrade releases the full torque of the manual car whilst keeping the top end power.  This results in an extra 50-60Nm of torque and much improved performance.

 

We have also completed a Stage2 conversion for cars running a full exhaust system inc de-cat and an upgraded filter.  I have attached the current Stage1 graph (now available for Manual and DSG) and the new Stage2 curves (also available for Manual and DSG) to this email.

 

Any questions and feedback please let me know.

what map is this coco ?, do you have a manual

Yep Manual.
I was told when I got the map (in Oct) that it was stage2... but when I called up, the guy told me it was the "low power map"... So very confused!  :confused:
