As title, I've been out of the country for a few weeks and finally via a series of emails got confirmation that I'm booked in for some custom mapping early May and I cannot wait. :pomppomp:
@vRSAlex (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1981) is going to be working his magic on the car first then dropping it up there for me as I'll be out of the country yet again.
Literally cannot wait to see what the guys at R-Tech can do to my motor as I've heard so many great things! :party:
I've still not managed to speak to @rtechniki (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1870) in person yet to find out all my options but I'm sure he'll get the best out of it as everyone else seems over the moon with the R-Tech maps! :happy2:
I'll be back with updates once mapping is completed, watch this space! :innocent:
-
What's alex doing to it?
-
TTE420 Turbo.....
AEM WMI Kit........with AKS spacer install.....
TTRS LPFP.........
155bar FPRV..........
AKS runner flap delete.......
PERON intercooler..........
Ground Control Top Mounts........
Polar FIS...........
Should be interesting!
-
The exact setup I've got planned. Can't wait to see how it turns out my little gunea pig!
Hope it's super linear delivery with the power that should be achieveble.
Doing mine Oct when I get back from the Falklands.
Excited for the both of us!

Just noticed I'll be keeping my APR cooler so that would be a great comparison. Although I have the BCS decat system & AKS TB pipe

Yeah, there'll never be a direct comparison but still be good to see performance of the PERON. I've got the REVO TB pipe so not too much difference....... :happy2:

sweet matt :wink:
bet you feel so much better letting everyone know your plans hehe :innocent:
-
Big time pal, can't wait for it all to be done now either! :happy2:

TTE-420 club!! Be following this to see what mine will eventually get, although won't be an R-tech map!

Good stuff buddy! You'll have the added bonus of epic traction too though! :happy2:
What map you going to be using?

Lol yessss!! Probably heading over to TSR but need to sort few things out first!
-
Nice one pal! Are TSR doing custom maps these days or they still using REVO?

Definately a REVO dealer still. Not 100% about the custom maps as heard different things now that i've looked at it! I thought they did.

The bill will certainly be interesting!
Let me know how you get on with the Ground Control top mounts
Was thinking of a set for me.
Good luck.
-
Awesome geometry setups possible with the SP ball joint & Ground control top mount combo.
-
Think the ground control does -3 degree, wouldn't run more than that!
-5 possible with ball joints (mine are max at 1.9/2).
that would be hella-scene :signLOL: :signLOL:
-
I was told today by the guy at wheels in motion that 1'45 up front is excessive! I told him to get on with it! :signLOL:

Tell me about it mate, already paid for the Turbo though so that's a bonus! ;)
Alex has had my GC Top Mounts on the shelf for bloody ages, been meaning to get them fitted for about a year!
Can't wait for it all to come together now and be finished off with a custom map, really interested to see what Niki can do with it all!
-
Not doing the turbo on exchange? Or has Alex had a spare ko4 sent off?

Is there any update on this I saw it on aks facebook I'm guessing it's yours. Really interested in this set up could be my route from where I am as opposed to BT if it looks to be performing well. There is lots on the Internet about them but want to see what Niki can do with it.

Well, a lot of stuff has been happening to the car over the past few months but I've been out of the country "on business" for most of the time so haven't had time to write an update.
Firstly the car went into @vRSAlex (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1981) at AKS Tuning for some surgery where it had the following fitted........
New TTE420 Turbo.....
AEM Dual Port WMI Kit........with AKS spacer install.....
TTRS LPFP.........
155bar FPRV..........
AKS runner flap delete.......
PERON intercooler..........
Ground Control Top Mounts........

Difference in the turbine compared to stock k04 (it's also much thicker too).

Going to build a little carpeted box for the WMI pump to keep things neat and protected.

The boost controller was hidden at the end of the dash to keep things looking fairly OEM inside the cabin.

WMI activity light was added to the existing boost gauge pod which shows power status/when it's injecting and also when reservoir is low.

My personal "Breaking Bad" setup at home now...... :laugh:

A Polar FIS was also added to keep a constant eye on how the car was behaving from now on.
Whilst the RFD was fitted my injectors/inlets were cleaned and a new injector fitted to ensure everything was running well before tuning. The Ground Control Top Mounts were fitted and another epic Geo Setup performed creating such and amazing handling car, it's SO pointy!!
:driver:
Alex txt me whilst I was away and told me he wanted to keep my car! :scared: :laugh:
I was out of the country so Alex then delivered the car up to @rtechniki (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1870) to have him wave his magic wand over the ECU and see what he could do with this new hardware setup.
This was only the 2nd TTE420 Niki had worked on so the mapping was completed over a few weeks. This was to allow him time to develop and tweak base maps before moving onto more "balls out" ones! :jumpmove:
These were the results after the first day.........

I'd asked Alex/Niki to create a linear power delivery for me as peak figures are not what I'm after. I wanted to have a really driveable car that would perform as both my daily and track sl@g when required. To say that's what I've been given is an understatement, it's drives almost like an OEM K04 but when pushed just boosts and boosts with no sign of letting up. The WMI keeps the temps down (which you can see falling on the POLAR FIS) and now it's had the RFD done it pops and bangs a fair bit which I'm shamelessly over the moon about! :laugh:
The map obviously has all the standard R Tech Trademarks including switchable maps via the pedals, anti compressor surge and Traction Control mapping which is a revelation.......I've now got more power but can put it down more easily than when I was Stg 2+.......all this and with ZERO Correction Factors throughout the entire rev range in all gears :happy2:
The WMI wasn't even mapped in so the timing could be pushed harder but tbh I'm totally happy with it the way it is.
We did run into an issue during mapping which was the 200cell Milltek Sports CAT just couldn't get the gasses out fast enough and wasn't happy up at the top end.
Solution.........3.5" BCS DeCAT Downpipe has been ordered along with a full BCS system to boot. Once that's fitted it's going back to be wound up some more to see what it makes then! :innocent:
-
:love: Great stuff
Where si the 2nd nozzle located for the WMI? :happy2:
-
excellent, thanks for the update. looking forward to getting my tte420 back at the end of the month and let Niki loose.
i went for the peron (which should be here this week) made my own 3.5" decat and decided to get a loba hpfp in place of the autotech so i know i have all the best bits :smiley:
i'm glad to hear you got the figures without wmi, i had it in my last car and it was too much hassle for me constantly filling it up so i made a massive fmic and sold the WMI :signLOL:
-
Awesome result, lovely set of curves on that graph!!
-
So, the car has been in with the guys at R TECH having the map tweaked after the exhaust being changed.
Here's some of the early results from FB.

440.7bhp and 427.7fl/lb.
Cannot wait to get her back, planning Snetterton 300 on September the 17th, should be a good shakedown.
-
holy hell, awesome results :congrats: :happy2: my tte has been delayed a couple of weeks due to them moving premises so apart from fitting rfd and cleaning valves i'm good to go :drool:
-
Am I reading that correctly. 1.5bar boost? :scared:
-
21 -22 psi? Not that bad?
-
Not pushed hard at all. APR2+ on the K04 runs 2Bar + from memory. My lowly K03 peaks at 1.5Bar!
-
My 2+ APR ko4 boosts its tits off :(
-
@rich83 (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=709) - Yeah, 1.5 bar......I personally didn't think that was very high? :ashamed: I'm sure my REVO 2+ Map boosted at about those levels, maybe higher.
Also, as the other guys have said the APR 2+ map boosts at stupendous levels! :scared:
@olethalb (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=12022) - Cheers buddy, cannot wait to see you machine with it fitted, it'll be amazing!! :pomppomp:
-
Low boost high power = win!!!
Mine does about 1.4bar and makes 320bhp as comparison. Shows you the efficiency of that TTE turbo

Totally agree buddy, I asked for it to be as linear as possible and he's done that too! :happy2:
-
Not much has changed recently with the car, I've been out of the county a lot so haven't had much chance to enjoy her.
I did pop down to see @rtechniki (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1870) the other day who kindly patched in a hard-cut limiter for me......now I'm like a child......brap......bap......bap.....bap.....!!!! :pomppomp: :laugh:
Niki has lowered the Rev limit in first and second gears so it's much easier to get the power down and off the mark......plus it sounds ace too!!! :happy2:
