What can R-Tech do with this hardware?

Hi Frodo-anni,
Thanks for your input. I guess you and I have gone about things in a different way. Funnily, if you put my downpipe, pump and cooler on yours, it would fly.....and I guess if I mapped mine with your intake and cat-back, mine would fly :-) Although saying that, yours at 302bhp must feel rapid now. Are you going to add the extra hardware then tweak the software?

The next thing i'll be doing in readiness for the map is getting a new oil pick-up pipe fitted. If it wasn't for this forum and all the helpful info available, I would never have known about this important maintenance tip, fair play.

Thanks.

I have every possible mod on my eddy apart from wmi and I have a twintake but it's a hybrid with itg filters as it's the forge filters that don't flow well and niki got 360 and 390 from mine extremely happy.

ah ok mate can understand i think for the sake of abit of noise at high rpm id have an intake :P

well in answer to your question, when I bought the ed30 I had read about the injectors flowing more fuel than the normal (but still amazing) gti so I treated it to a pump.

I had also previously read an interesting article about the ed30 motor by a tuning company called mtm who mentioned the importance of uprated intercooling, so I treated it to the s3 cooler.

I have also fitted a BCS decat downpipe (my favourite uprated item) and prior to the remap will be fitting the rs4 valve and uprated panel filter.

I love how the car sounds right now and as i'm in my thirties I do not require any extra noise from a cat-back or any sucking noise from an induction kit. I'm well aware that I may be short of a few bhp by going this route but i'm fine with that.

Ps, just saw your wheel colour in a pescara thread...very nice.

Thanks.

You wont get any benefit from the RS4 fuel valve if you have an edition 30,you already have S3 injectors in your car all you need is an hpfp for fueling  and your good to go

The valve helps maintain the required fuel pressure for high powered K04 equipped cars (with HPFP). It has been proven to bring benefits for Stage 2+ ed30's  :happy2:

There was a thread about it a few years ago where people with Stage 2+ K04 were experiencing fuel cuts at around 5200rpm, the valve solves this.
