Oh i hope not Robin, all these babies costing me a kidney and a liver already!!! Just between us 2, how much is a decent HPFP??
....While you don't have an aftermarket HPFP, Nick at R-tech I'm sure will be able to custom map to stop you needing one. On my Revo we (JKM) were able to reduce the Boost setting and then restore it after my APR was installed.
In rough ballpark figures I think the APR will cost the best part of £750 (I'd have to look it up) and the Autotech barely half of that (needs checking). If you have to go the Autotech route then I would recommend buying a completely new unused OEM VAG pump and fitting Autotech's internals in that. I wouldn't buy a used Autotech either. The APR = peace of mind and greater strength, that's why I waited before I could afford it. Well, I can't really afford it but that's another story! Such is the slippery slope of modding - It's a drug.
