Should of done it sooner!
« on: April 09, 2013, 07:57:12 pm »
Took a trip to R-tech today for a custom stage 1 map and i am very impressed. The golf pulls like anything now  :grin:



Was very impressed with the guys especially Nick who sorted a new part for me there and then so i didnt have to come back another day  :notworthy:

Thanks alot im sure i will be up for stage two in no time  :happy2:

That's seems a really good price for how happy people are with it.. What's the health check involve? Very interested in this :)

Very happy with the results, Checking the DV which i had mine replaced for the G for peice of mine. Few other bits under the hood but im sure Nick wouldnt run it unless he was happy that it would be safe.

R tech by the sounds of it are the only place to go, once I get my gti a trip down there might have to happen at some point. Just out of curiosity how long does all the health checks and mapping take? Just I've never been involved in this kinda thing before.

I was there for a couple of hours, it's not like some of these places that plug a computer in, 5 mins later off you go. Nick's team will check out your boost hoses, DV etc and then will do a stock run, and several other dyno runs as Nick perfects your map  :drool:

Always good practise to bring the guys some biscuits  :happy2:
