Hellooo all

[PinguGTi]

Hi,

Hope everyone is well and I wanted to introduce myself yesterday to the forum but somehow being really tired after work took over and the next thing I know I'm curled up in bed dropping off  So I thought I would introduce myself today, where shall I start...

Name: Andy (PinguGTi) Name Pingu came from the all time classic assuming you all know what I'm talking about, Haha.
Location: England
Age: 22

Recently joined this forum simply because I shall be getting a mk5 golf gti on a 08 plate on Monday 

Lost now on what to say, ahaa.

Anything you may want to ask me that I have said already, feel free to comment with your question/'s,

Thank you!

Welcome  to the forum mate!get some pics up when you get your car,is it staying standard  but wait you have joined this forum so it won't

I was planning on doing a stage 1 remap but guessing it just consists of remapping the ECU and that's it? (Don't have a lot of knowledge on cars)

Also, I want a pair of Xenons but mine doesn't come with them standard  What would I need to do if I was planning on getting some?

A decent remap should include a health check, dyno runs and proper tuning until the optimal result is reached.

Have a look in the R-Tech section & welcome to the forum

I had a look at R-tech's website and also some reviews  So far so good, everyone seems to be happy with the results but the only thing playing in my mind is that, who's tune is better? Or if there the same...

Revo or R-tech?

[Scottymon]

I don't have either, but you do have the SPS route for switching your tune with the Revo, not sure if Rtech offer a box for that. 

However, by A LOT of accounts the Rtech tunes really do make the most of the each stage of hardware.

I'll have to go with R-tech seeing as it seems the better option from what people say. I won't be doing it until October anyway but I thought a pre-shout would never hurt 

[Wooosh]

Welcome mate, if you're car didn't come with factory fitted xenon's you need to buy a pair of xenon's, kufatec adapters & someone with Vagcom to code them for you. With mapping I'd say Revo/APR/R-tech & get some pictures up!

They don't do a box at £150. They do switchable maps via a pedal combination. Someone in the review section showed a video of how it works. Ingenious
