After a few problems and let downs with trying to buy a set of wheels for my gti i'm going to spend the money elsewhere, on the engine  :party:

I understand that remaps are for different people, some are better suited for different peoples driving needs.

I currently have a full milltek (non-res) and will be fitting a new intake, again. not sure which one yet as some have mixed reviews (neuspeed)

Thanks, Tom

BEST....im not sure, i just use the carbonio with piperX, it depends on how much you wish to spend really. i think alot of people on here rate the EVOMS one quite highly.  :smiley:

how much did the carbonio set you back joe? i've found a quality looking filter for £189, but its performance i'm not too sure on.

The carbonio is not really worth the money IMO. I had one and it did not make a whole lot of difference, as Joe says many people rate the EVOMS. It givesslightly improved BHP and torque figures and it sounds brilliant  :drool: :drool:

Ive had the carbonio on my MK4 and i was a match made in heaven, no experience of it on the MK5 though, i have an EVOMS on my MK5 - superb bit of kit!

My mk4 .:R had a custom code map, although when i get the mk5 mapped i think i am going to be taking the APR route

We might have a bit of an offer for an intake coming up in the next week or so (mainly for K04 cars but believe we will be able to get a K03 version inlcuded as well).

When i did look into getting a remap , i decided on Revo, as there software was adjusted for UK car from what i gathered and alos their customer service/help was very good + you can get the REvo select switch .

I also liked the idea of the Bluefin , ie you could add and remove the map at will also it performed just as good as the others if you look at Greennouses graphs and power.

Go with Revo you won't be dissapointed !

....

Revo for me - Their agents JKM are excellent and Revo HQ give excellent support, plus my VW dealer now has a Revo guy (my doing).

However, as I now have a great working relationship and trust with VWRacing/RacingLine I would consider a custom Superchips via VWR if I was remapping again. Not keen on Bluefin though, especially as I use Macs not Windoze 'puters.
