bleufin unit reads your stock map, you connect to superchips and upload, they assign you the right map to download, the device is generic  :happy2:

Hmmm, I expected a lot more excitement in your 'findings post'  :wink:

I'd love to get mine mapped, but think I'll get used to it as standard for a while - then worry about sorting our insurance changes etc

Im gonna go out for another Blast because my traction control light has not been going off like a xmas tree light like i was expecting. After quick convo with hedge, apparently im not trying hard enough, so off to try and "Make it so" :smiley:

Power really does kick in from around 2500rpm and the front tyres you can feel are really holding on for grim death, although im running Dunlop Tirenoise Max's at the moment, they seem to be doing ok.

The gearchange pause did seem to start to improve the longer i was out.

Off now for another test :drinking:

Are you running Stage 1 or 2?
I would guess you've been given stage 1 but need stage 2 as you have the exhaust etc.

Either that or you are driving like a granny.... the difference should be night and day!

....Stop tempting him, John!

As others have said, Phil - You'll probably need to let the remap settle in with the ECU. But I don't have any direct experience of the Bluefin.

I don't know how much not having a Milltek Turbo-back would restrict the Bluefin's performance. Superchips would be able to tell you.

The Ed30's are silly fast with a remap! Nice 1 :happy2:

^^^  :congrats:

ok been for a spirited blast and there is deffinatly more power and feels like ive gained another 30 or so horses...... but im abit disapointed as to why when pushing on, when changing gear or when you ask it to go faster, it seems to very hesitant or excellarating smoothly. On the standard map, the power is ameadiatly on and a flowing smooth feeling, yet with the bluefin, it feels like im letting off the power as you begin the start of the next gear.... hard to explain . Have heard the exhaust noise at around 3500rpm in top gear and have experianced the "Boom" from the Non Res Milly that some people have spoken about, so maybe Res section would be better, but im not that fused about that tbh.

Not sure what to think really , driving normally up the gears she is totally fine and alot more responcive, but only when really giving the pedal a push at any speed, it feels like im easing off the gas and then putting it back on in a second.

Anyone else had this? interested to hear from Quality Dave, as he's tried it and wasn't 100% impressed?.Whether this was his complaint or Garethmk1.

Steve,

I wasn't impressed by the drive TBH.  Perhaps I didn't leave it for long enough to 'adapt'. 

I felt that it was all or nothing, below 3500rpm it was as if you were waiting for something to happen (turbo lag?) and then post 3500rpm it took off like a scalded cat.  Bear in mind I have a manual Ed.

It seemed to ruin what the GTi is about for me.  I will take another dip into the remap pool, but not just yet, i am enjoying my car as is.

Perhaps leave it as is for adaptation, or get in touch with SC and explain your thoughts, their cust service is good.
