Golf 2.0 GT TDI 170, ECU remapping & DPF removal

(1/2) > >>

Hello all,

Just bought my new 56 plate GT TDI 170 bhp, and I am indecisive on a few things I'm thinking about doing to it so thought I'd make a topic and see if some of you could help me out...

•ECU remap?
•DPF removal?

I'm also thinking about getting my roof, spoiler, side mirrors wrapped black but considering my car is red im not too sure on if it will look good. Thoughts?

I would put a photo up but I'm not sure how to

Anyway thanks

Hope to see some replies :D

Www.cctuning.co.uk i believe are good in the mapping of diesels.
Darkside developments have a dpf decat pipe available.have one in my sitting room waiting to be fitted along with egr bypass.

BennyBoy93:
Thanks for the reply mate

You have any idea how much bhp and that you would achieve by taking the DPF off? Is it worth it? Or you think only the remap is needed?

I was going to blank the egr valve but read into it and it just makes you drink more fuel and you don't get much gains, you just cause problems pretty much so I decided not to do it

marko:
Should get another 30 bhp if mapped properly.
Also if mapped right,it should reduce the amount of fuel used in some cases.

my car is standard gt170 sport with a stage one remap from p- torque and it achieved 208bhp 338 ft lb i believe with dpf removal etc you may get nearer 220 bhp from p torque
