All Things Mk5 > Mk5 General Area
Where do I start???
Hurdy:
Logically you would need to think how far you want to initially modify the car. Then....
Uprate the suspension
Uprate the brakes
Uprate the exhaust
Uprate the intake
Remap.
As I say....LOGICALLY this is the right way to do it, but in reality most people do the remap first and then follow suit with other mods. :smiley:

some seat dealers do revo remaps so i would have thought some vw ones would or cover it by warranty

Ta for the info though guys - Steve - is that definite about dealer offered mods?? I guess it'll be something like Ford did with the Mountune ST upgrade??

Yep it's going to be along the same lines as the ST stuff.
Not sure on exact schedule but it's going to be going into a few dealers very soon :happy2:
Where abouts are you located?
This will be for the mk6 platform though not the mk5 i would imagine?
Seat europe offered a remap from a Co i cant remember but not the uk due to our laws govering testing, safety blah blah.
The car dealership i bought my ed from used a 3rd party tuner to do maps if you required it was dearer than going direct to the tuner yourself. But as i found out as they wouldn't touch my ed30 come servcing time as i didnt go thru them.

Getting a remap and only buying cat-back is a waste of money. If you remap you'll need a turbo-back (aka Hi-flow+Downpipe) - They compliment each other.

I don't think that is strictly true Robin.
A stage 1 map and a cat back is a good starting place and gives you the option to get used to the car and then add the downpipe and stage 2 software at a later date. :happy2:

^^^^^^^ i completley agree with steve here stage 1 remap and cat back go hand in hand, the remap gives it the go , the cat back supplies the right noise and the looks , imo this is enough for most , i would nt want any more with out the diff :happy2:

if you dont have dsg the first mod i would do is the torque arm insert , not sure if you feel results as much with dsg :smiley:
