it wont slip in stock but if its been slipping it might be best to change it then its a fit and forget about it and i will have a new stock vw clutch disc for sale as i dont need it

Like he said, in std mode mine was fine but when i put it in race map it would slip. Now they normally test the car in 3rd gear at vag as this will show if the car is mapped or not.

To get around this just before i went to the dealer i left the car in race map and slipped the clutch with plenty of revs a few times to make it slip quite badly then put it back to standard and quickly got a techy to come out and they notived the slip.

I've got those considerations too and sort of realised yesterday that I need to calm down a bit... so I'll have to mod the car over the next 12 months instead of all at once.  By the time I've finished, I could have got another Ed30  :surprised:

Surprise surprise - no slip in stock at all - not a sniff  :sad: So gutted  :sad: Well, see what it does over the weekend and then I'll go back to superchips.  Hopefully they'll ask me to go up for a session to set the car up.  2nd gear in stock is also way better that remapped - I get wheel spin in second when not remapped ! What is going on  :confused:

Yes I know that lol ! It's just that 2nd gear when remapped is really really gutless, power is better in 2nd with no remap
