Title: Remap booked
Post by: seanieb on February 17, 2014, 04:00:27 pm

Booked a remap at r-tech for 5th march, could of used shark as they are just around the corner but price and excellent feedback means r-tech is the chosen tuner. Hoping to reach around 250hp and 290-300lb torque would be great :grin:

stage 1 remap done, car is totally transformed. Torque figures of 339 lbs means it spins up 3rd gear in the dry :laugh:

yeah its fine at the moment lol, got 241bhp so not massively impessive but the car only pulled 180hp standard so thats still +60 increase. they said there could be many reasons the power was so down when standard, turbo fins cracked? I will post the graph up when i can. car feels much quicker than 240hp though its probably all that torque :grin:

^^^^ Shweet!

Bet your well chuffed. Top end bhp figures don't mean a lot but with that torque in the midrange it will be awesome.

I've been down to R-Tech today to watch a mate having his 1.8t A4 mapped.

Niki was as impressive as ever and did a superb job, even though the fuel pump and MAF sensor was shot, still managed a 43bhp increase and a very smooth and drivable car :congrats:
