I seem to remember a firm of the same or similar name claiming rather optimistic figures for their maps a good few years ago, in the mk4 days. I think it's safe to say there might be better options out there.

What engine have you got, and where are you based?

Did some mention me :laugh:
The 170 will map to 210 bhp but 220bhp if pushed...celtic tuning had a bit of a wobble in quoting figures but could be just forum talk

Yea I've been in touch with a few I know that Star Performance in Scotland won't do it, however a few others have stated they will with Celtic Tuning being one that does, hoped someone might can give a bit of advise/info on them their FB page seems to have good reviews.

My 2.0 140 caddy has a Celtic tuning remap, pulls like a train, quite an aggressive map, but I love it. Printout says 206bhp god knows what it is but I'll bet it's not far off that. :driver:

Have you ever had any issues with the caddy because of the remap?

206bhp from a standard BKD? Not a chance.

Hi mate. Try autotek in gourock or ecutune in glasgow both get a decent name about here, but i've not used either for mapping.

Nope, it's been fine, the DMF did explode killing the gearbox & clutch, but that was all happening long before the re map, the re map simply helped it!

I'd love to get it on a dyno to shut up all the ones saying it's BS, it's probably not 206 but as I said it's dam quick & the torque is unreal.
