Is R-Tech as good as APR or Revo?? I want mine done but think the £600 price tag for the latter two is a bit silly but I want as much power gain as possible...

Yes, maybe even better.

The R-Tech vs Revo was discussed the other day, R-Tech vs APR is probably in the archives somewhere. . .

Have a read of this: http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,81008.0.html

And make your mind up from there. The forum is a wealth of knowledge   :happy2:

Thanks Gray that is very interesting, I'm defo up for an R-Tech map now after reading that. And also in my opinion £600 is a total ripoff for any map! I would leave the car alone before I paid that  :smiley:

My thoughts exactly. It's all overhead & profit. Big companies, lots of mouths to feed.

I'd rather put my money into a small honest company who just wants to do a good job and build a reputation, not pay for marketing managers & commercial directors and their company BMW's  :happy2:

That's just my view

This was the reason I used Jabbasport (Stage 2 Custom map) and R-Tech (DSG Custom map) for remaps and BCS for exhaust and Volant for intake, I avoided the big companies and their big prices!!

Now if R-Tech were to do a Remap for the MK7 Golf R I would probably be first in line  :happy2:
