So, it's was 22nd May when the STS arrived and with Ben under the cosh with the GB & GTI International at the weekend it was last Tues when I was away that the map came through.
Arrived home late last night so it wasn't until tonight I managed to upload the map and take it for a drive.........and to sum it up :wink:

Big difference, great smooth torque'y power delivery throughout the rev range - big :happy2: to Ben & Shark Team
Anyone thinking of getting their DPF 170 mapped I would definately recommend
Will get R/R at some point in the near future, so will update you with results and also with feedback on fuel economy :smiley:

In regards to this upgrade,
Do they load the map on that. You then plug the unit in and load the MAP up?
or did they put it on your car. and this unit allows you to adjust or just go to stock or remap?
Thanks

You have a couple of options,
1. Go and visit Shark and they will map your car at their HQ.
2. Purchase one of their STS units + Map
Once you receive your STS unit, you download your original map, send that to Shark - they then send you a performance map & an immobiliser map
You then use the STS to upload and download the different maps as you wish, benefit being you don't have to travel to Shark, if your cars still under warranty you can revert back to stock map before going to dealer etc.
The unit doesn't allow you to adjust the map settings just upload and download, however it has a neat little feature that allows you to read and clear fault codes on your ECU too.
