Which remap?

Post by Jester »

Really wanting my car remapped (1.4 tsi 160) and I'm not sure who to go with, got a quote from Revo which was £500 including new spark plugs.. Or £200 by Quantum.
Revo states 205-215 bhp
Quantum states 196 bhp.
:S advice please? -Al

Have you tried Celtic tuning awesome company they will come to your home or place of work
I've had three remaps with them and they have all gave great power increases

£500 including new spark plugs by Revo and £200 by Quantum, although I've heard more about Revo :)

When you get a price give them a call and ask if they can do a little better on the price as your undecided which company to go with it worked for me,
They are a awesome company and give excellent customer care they also give you a warranty on your engine

i'd never remap this engine given some of the tales of woe in stock form, there is a reason why the likes of Revo etc do not do stage 2 for these

That's a fair point, though Revo suggest spark plugs to avoid issues. It's mostly the 2008+2009 engines that have problems.

262 is nice! It's a shame they can't go 210-220 on my 1.4!

One quick question, what difference does the remap make to your insurance cost? just a rough idea would be good.
