R-Tech are cheaper and much more reputable than RS Tuning :happy2:

Try to find a bad word about them. . . I dare you  :grin:



R-tech is quite far away.. But if its going to be worth the journey ill make the effort! I'm on the borders of Scotland!


Then try Stattlers in Sheffield ...they are revo & GIAC dealers

+2 on r-tec,did my ed30 & it was really awesome..if they could remap a golfR I would go to them again,no doubt about that but due to r-tec only having a fwd Dyno,they wouldn't map it..settled for GIAC in the end

They can do Golf R's and now do the dsg for them too.

Really..from when!!!when I asked nick & co bk in July,there said no..

Niki only realise recently he's been a wally turning down Golf R's, not realising its same engine as S3  :grin:

He's mapping them now

Is the ECU on the mk6 R "locked"

Aren't all the post 2009 ECU's locked now Rich?

I could be wrong but I know mine was (CR 170 2010 A3).
I think the rule is if it's a tri-core ECU then it will certainly be 'locked'.

That said, I think Alex (AKS) managed to map mine without doing a full break on the lock but I appreciate that's a very high level noddy description  :ashamed:

My Scirocco R 2010 was locked. When Regal mapped it for me it was the first that they had done in the country, they had to take the ecu out of the car. their counterparts in Germany connected to it over the internet and I guess they hacked it to bypass the encryption. They also managed to flash it without increasing the flash count which was nice for the old warranty ;). Mind you it took them 8 hours!! Before they took the ecu out, they flashed it, dynod it, turned off the ignition and the ecu reset itself to stock.

R-tech is the way to go, even at that distance.

Fit the Rev G Diverter valve before your map.

HAd mine done at R-tech, went in with just an intake and ran 193bhp and 222ftlb.... left with issues but ran 232bhp and 286ftlbs nik said it was poor and said he thought the turbo was cracked... it turns out my turbo was cracked    :sad1:  Statllers in sheffield fitted me a new borg warner K03 and all was UNBELIEVABLE. Went to the Charity rolling road day and my car ran 267bhp and 324ftlbs... at stage one!! no other modifications, no fuel additives.

R-tech are in a different league! :happy2:
