Milltek question

Hi all!
         I am booked in to get a turbo back milltek fitted on tuesday and was wondering if will have to get the car mapped or will it drive ok and not throw up faults with standard map?

Cheers John

Greeners:
Milltek themselves admit this does happen as the Lambda sensor detects too much heat and throws up the fault code. Doesn't happen all the time so you may be lucky  :happy2:

i believe it is the the other way round.  The Less back pressure, due to the bigger bore, and free flow cat reduces the temp differential between the 2 lambda probes and throws a CEL light.

I am in the same boat, i want to access the increased torque that the DP will give, but at the risk of a CEL light.

I may be totally wrong though, but that was the way it was explained to me.................

MAT ED30:
it will 100% put the cell light on after about 150 ish miles so u need stage 2 map to turn it off or might be able to turn it off in vag com

I wonder why all the garages I have enquired about this exhaust have not mentioned this to me!?
