Remap Poll
xxx_mojo_xxx:
Agree. My only concern is that depending on where you go a remap can cost anything from £199 to £500.
As there is no real skill required, apart from an investment in the equipment - I think a remap should ideally be at the £200 mark and no more.

i'd love a £200 remap, although i feel they are few and far between now.
how much are stage 1 revo currently?

I think with the Revo 20 % off you are looking at £470.
You can still get remaps for around 200, but you would be mad IMHO. the GTI is a 20,000 grand car, i would only go with a map that has a proven record. All maps will make it go faster its up to you if you want to trust such an expensive car to still be performing a few years down the line.

this thread disturbs me :sad:
Guys/Gals this isnt the ECU on Stephensons 'Rocket' , its a very complex and intricate piece of electronics.
The map is derived from thousands of hours of multi environment testing.
The number of changeable factors and their subsequent influence on others variables is more than tricky!
There are also numerous factors that the end user may decide influence the choice of buying.
Do your research, put the factors in order of priority for YOU, then go with that tuner.
Be careful to not follow the mistakes of others, or necessarily take forum facts as 'facts'
For me it was APR or REVO , I chose APR. But I'm sure Id be happy with REVO too.
