Just had the GIAC DSG software fitted!!!

Cheers Ben

I think I will be able to get down into the 12's with the Quaife I've ordered and some R888's in tow

+

Phoning up tomorrow to get a proper CAI  and to enquire about a decat for the Milly

GTI international should be interesting in the MKV category this year

[Sunglasses Ron]

You still on the slope then mate?  Look forward to seeing the old girl running at Brunters mate, especially with those new additions. What CAI you looking at EVOMS, Dbilas?

[Hurdy]

Definitely still on the slope I seem to have hit a steep bit at the moment

I've gone for the EVOMS CAI. Just had confirmation that it should be arriving tomorrow. Ordered with the dry filter,sock and heatshield - so no MAF issues like the oiled filters can sometimes have

Just put the Carbonio in the "For Sale" section.

Nice one pal.. Get ready for Darth Vader then..

I just hope it drowns out the sound of Leif GARRETT nearby on the 1/4 mile

I have an EVOMS heatsheild spare... damn, missed out on that one.

Any ideas if it's TDi DSG compatible?

[Hurdy]

The GIAC site only quotes R32 and 2.0TFSi, but there shouldn't be any reason why the remap wouldn't work with the TDI. The dealers can have custom ones written at the same cost and so lowering the gearchange limits shouldn't be a problem.

Cool, thanks for the info - out of interest which GIAC dealer are you using as they sound pretty clued up. Fiancee has still got me 'looking' at TDi A3's as opposed to the more expensive to run GTi's, so it would be nice to know I can play with the DSG/S-tronic on one of those too - got to admit, a remap and a hybrid turbo for around £2k giving around 230-250bhp but retaining the economy and insurance group 11 is quite appealing (can't even consider a DSG TDi Mk5 as they only come in family size - aka 5dr)... Sorry for straying off topic! By the time I've sorted myself out hopefully the Revo one will be ready too. A Superchips one that uses the Bluefin handset would be nice as well.

I used Statller (Autorads) in Sheffield.

This sounds like an interesting mod but wonder if its worth it without an engine remap as the power and torque in my std ED30 tails of at the red line (6.5k). My DSG if left to its own devices wont change up until 6.7k or 6.8k at which point you can feel the power tailing off but the rev limit for the engine has not been reached, this alows me to manually shift at 6.5k. Just for info does anyone know what he rev limit is for both engine and DSG on a std ED30 as I know Hurdy stated his shifted at 6.2k before the mod? If I was going for this I would go for and engine remap to make the most of it. For you guy's with these mods at what revs does the power and torque tail off?

Cheers,

Your feeling the soft limiter engaging, that isn't the turbo falling off..

The car will pull strong to 7200rpm no probs.. A lot of it is in the engine tuning too, most of the tuners out there dont remove the soft cut

Sorry Hurdy, I thought I'd posted a congrats post on here already but obviously not - congratulations and with the Quaife, it'ill be awesome.  I'm not feeling bitter, twisted and left out at all with my crocked Ed30

Never even new it had a soft limiter, i like Edi thought it was the turbo running out of puff.
