You'll be needing a new clutch then, assuming it's a manual. :wink:

I'm not sure about the best map. Apparently I have a terrible one, but it seems ok to me. There seem to be a lot of Revo lovers here; they're pricey though.

hi matey, getting 312hp from a gti k03 with just a panel filter is impossible. I have a gti which ran at stage 2+. That was turbo back exhaust uprated f/p internals intake rs4 truss valve on octane boost and we managed 300hp from it. If you have seen dyno plots then more than likely the rollers will have been very kind.

A stage 1 map will see you in the region of 245-260hp. Most of the reputable tuners give decent gains on stage 1 so go with one of those. Revo, apr, giac imo

If you want a brilliant map and want to spend 300 quid, get a PDT remap.

If you want a brilliant map and want to spend 600 quid, get a Revo remap!!!!

The Revo map is awesome, but double the price? I've got access to my mechanically identical old GTi (PDT Stage 1) so am going to do a back to back drives in both this and my current GTi (Revo Stage 1) very soon and I'll do a write up of what I find.

I'm running an offer on shark performance remaps with a free sts unit at the moment.

I can't promise 312bhp though...

I am guessing this guy is as good as Joe at hiding his secrets.  :signLOL: My guess is he is touting for his mate, who sells maps.  :indifferent: :fighting2:

My advice is go to a reputable place (that's recommended by folk on here) that is local(ish) to you  :happy2:

You can pay between £250 - £600 for any of the reputable maps on this forum. If you like brands, pay £600 and get a Revo sticker for your window, a little less gets you super chips, and for around  £250-300 you can have a PDT or R-Tech map (the latter I very much recommend).

At the end of the day, all maps (providing set up right) make about the same power (dependant on mods). For example, my £300 R-Tech custom map made the same power on the dyno as another GTI with a Revo map. . .

You pays your money, you take your choice  :wink:
