Title: 2.0tdi 140bhp remap
Post by: fletch- on July 10, 2015, 04:36:52 pm
Just brought a gt tdi 140bhp, and it is a bit sluggish compared to my corsa Vxr. I wasn't expecting it to be as quick, but not quite as slow as it is :( what are the best maps for these engines? Are revo any good as midland VW have quoted me £210 all in, and reckon it will take it to around 180bhp which id be happy with. Many thanks

Revo should be good for a Stage 1.

Just mind the clutch, it might start slipping a bit if it's not in great condition. If it's new, you'll be fine. :happy2:

Lovely. You are the answer to all my questions haha thanks! Car is a 1 owner 50k miles so I'm hoping the clutch isn't too worn, there not to expensive to replace anyway so I'm going to go for it I think!

On a TDi 140 any remap will make a huge difference. I had one before my gti and had a Bluefin superchip map on it  :sick: even though they aren't the best maps in the world the difference was unreal, felt like it had so much more torque and pulled a lot better. Before the map it couldn't pull the skin off a rice pudding so I know where your coming from
