I'm looking at a remap the end of this month by apr or revo! What have u guys paid for a stage 1 remap and where have u noticed the gains(mid range low range etc) bare in mind I'm talking no mods just yet. 

SO8:
Std Gti or Edition 30/Pirelli ??  I assume std GTi looking at your profile .....

However, there are basically gains everywhere !

Revo and APR to my knowledge come in with a fair punch in the mid range as the turbo bites that tails off ever so slightly towards the red line (but still loads more than normal!). 

Revo can be adjusted when the car is remapped so it is not too aggressive ....

Both will follow the same type of power delivery - just alot more of it. 

winrya:
with the standard gti the gains are everywhere.  Most noticable is the way the power comes in with a bang and 2k rpm.  Its great because you can drive it as fast as previously keeping it around 5-6000 rpm just using 3-4000.  It's a massive difference.  I'd love to see a mag like evo review a stage 1 revo GTI.  They already think the gti is brilliant but with the extra power its a completely different animal.  Ref prices, you'll struggle to get below the ex vat £499 rrp

I have a big grin on my face just reading that I should have the cash end of the month so is a remaped gti allot different to a remaped ed30

Can  only comment on a remapped Edition 30 ..... mine was quicker with a Superchips Bluefin Stage 1 map than the Z4M I have just bought !!   .....once moving that is ....

Getting off the line was not easy once remapped but how often do you actually do that !  It is all about on the move.  Damp or wet then forget it - but that's the same with all cars bar 4wd.

I can honestly say that the Superchips remap of my 'old' Edition 30 was the best money spent on any upgrade I have ever bought for any of my cars - the Edition 30 responds stupidly well to remapping  :evilgrin:
