Title: Want my car to pop & flame
Post by: MJGib on April 22, 2015, 11:36:21 pm

I want my car to pop & flame...
Got an apr map wondered if there's something I can buy?
Or do apr have a launch control/ rev limiter map I can get?

And you is going to slam it, ey? lol... :signLOL: I think you could get your map tweaked to slightly over fuel the engine but I'd be concerned about the damage this sort of kit will do to your cat... Unless you don't run one then you should be OK.

I'd love to be all sensible and say don't bother, but the sound of an exhaust popping as you slow down is appealing. Whether I could live with it all the time though...

Buy an astra VXR  :laugh:

In all seriousness though, it's difficult to get the TFSI engine in the GTI to pop/bang as it uses direct injection, even with a decat. Custom mapping would be able to do something, but with the likes of a mk1 Astra VXR, all you'd need is a sports cat  :wink:

My car pops when I change gear if I'm using wmi apparently I also get little flames occasionally but only in the tail pipes not big ones out the back just what my mates tell me from trying to keep up  :happy2:

I didn't tune for it specifically it is just a bi product of stage 2+ and wmi. It's not loud and in your face nothing compared to a vxr lol. When alex at aks set up my meth he said it sounds cool :-).

United Motosports map! That'll do it nice and sweet with launch control.
