Hurdy, i'll probably see you on the 10th oct, but is there any way of "pm-ing" you? I might need some advice on coilovers soon, or should i just make another coilover thread?

also taken from the pdf.....

..."Indeed it was, and one of the first aftermarket tuners in the UK to get their hands on the GTI Edition 30 was Superchips, based in Buckingham. The official tuning partner to Volkswagen Racing, Superchips has a long pedigree in electronic engine tuning, with more than 500,000 cars of all makes successfully modified over the last 27 years."

i guess superchips are one of the reputable ones. :smiley:

My (still) unmodded car has produced 232 and 227 bhp on the same RR. As others have said, different factors will influence bhp but there is meant to be a 30bhp between the GTI and the ED30.

Where are the results ofnthe last few RRs?

Unless you are up for getting an engine on a bench dyno you will never know (even then it could be out by a bit)

RR's should be used as a before and after mod test, to give a rough idea if a mod has been beneficial and by how much.

The old leon cupra owners claimed (still do i expect) they could get well above what they actually could (bhp figures) after a remap. One of the more accurate RR's is JKM, this showed them up quite badly. Most cars (standard) that go on there hit the manufacturers figures. I would still never fully trust a RR though, tyre pressure, temp, petrol used all alter the outcome.

I wanna go but it's a bit of a trek now I've moved back up to the midlands. I've just got an error on the dash for the exhaust. Fingers crossed this means a new exhaust.

They are talking about the difference between a GTI and an ED30. Most people thought that it was a simple remap that gave the extra power to the ED30 when it first came out and we were mocked for buying them. It was subsequently found that the ED30 had several differences to it's engine over the GTI and so we now mock those who mocked us :grin:

this is the exact words the dealer told me when i walked in the showroom and saw the ed30. its just remaped a extra tweenty odd brake.

Guys , Phil takes  a strong opinion on this issue , to which I dont subscribe, nor do i wish to discuss again here :driver:


Cheers John_0  :popcornsoda:

The day that someone actually can proove that a production Engine has performance bhp differences from the exact same made parts. Then im all ears. :happy2:

I would disagree. When the Golf 5 GTI first launched it had the AXX engine making 147kw which made 125kw on the wheels here in S.A. Then they kept the power figure at 147 claimed and mysteriously all the new BWA specced cars made around 135-140 kw on the wheels. BWA engine if you are in the know is around 162kw on the fly.

VW / Audi / Seat quite often under quote mainly due to testing there engines to make the required power at a claimed 40 degrees C. So when we run them in std temps they make more power.

On rolling road, standard car. :stupid:

High temps and lower fuel grades will effect max out of the 2.0tfsi unit. In South Africa?? :wink:
