Well im new to this all this remap malarky having only owned N/A vw's in the past, and I have just purchased a mk5 gti and I've decided to have it remapped, my question is would my car still retain it's current mpg when just plodding around? i know when on WOT its going to be worse but as I do quite a bit on the m'way id like to retain the MPG I am currently getting. thanks for any help!

bacillus:
If you drive the same way with the map installed then you should see an improved mpg figure.

RedRobin:
.
Only slightly imprioved mpg (2 or 3 mpg absolute max) and not enough to get too excited about - In other words, you don't remap power for economy reasons. Power and economy are not good bedmates! The remap's extra power will get you excited though. So prepare for a big drop for the worse in your mpg while you enjoy and get used to it - That's the reality.

Enjoy!  :driver:

When i had my gti ko3 i had a shark stage 1 map and got between 2-3 mpg better!! :happy2:

Oh that's excellent then! i just didn't want to do it and then massively reduce the consumption when i was just driving normally. cheers!
