Just thinking about an ECU remap
rashg60:
So I'm going in for the Stage 1 remap on Friday (2 days to go) and the only mod on the car is a K&N panel air filter and running on Shell V-Power petroleum.
It'd be interesting to see what the power output is pre-map - I'd guess at 205-208bhp, as it feels a lot more responsive after fitting the air filter and using V-Power.
Hopefully post map I'd expect it to exceed 250bhp.

So, the Golf is back from R-Tech and boy does it feel like a completely different car. The guys were brilliant and made sure I was completely happy before they took the payment (despite me offering).
It made 207 bhp with 215 ft/lb pre-map with just the K&N filter - which I was very pleased with to be honest.
Post map it made 247 bhp with 292 ft/lb = made me very happy indeed.
I'm only using my GTI as a second car so hardly drive it - not even done 500 miles since I've owned it from earlier this year. Anyway, now I'm looking for excuses to go out in it at every given opportunity. I bought a low-miler and intended to keep the mileage low, but scared now as I'll be racking up the miles!
I'm unsure as to how to post attachments to this thread - as I wanted to share the dyno maps with you guys, so you can offer any advice/suggestions on where to go from here. So if anyone can help with the attachments please let me know. When I click on the 'attachments and other options' below, no option comes up for adding attachments - unless my settings are wrong? Help!
Simo:
