Which remap?

This may have nothing to do with the remap but I'm looking to het a bigger picture. The remap has been in for 20k miles but I'm replacing the gearbox in my diesel scirocco. The clutch arm or arms got lose and put a hole in the housing.

This exact thing happened to another forum member, I will have to try and find the thread so you can read it.

Anyone have any experience with a company called Vagtech in Milton Keynes?

They claim that their Revo stage 1 map (complete with Forge recirculation valve and Revo panel filter) would increase BHP from 200 to 280. That is with everything else stock and with no problems as a result.

When asked about having a standard clutch, they said that like any clutch, it could last 5 mins or 5 years, it depends on your driving style.

Any thoughts on this and them?

that sounds very exagerated to me, a stage 1 should take you to around the 250 mark and a stage 2 would go around 280 roughly, get them to guarantee the 280 in writing then go for it

Yeah that's what I thought......To be honest i'm not sure whether I want more than 250BHP anyway when everything else (fuel pump, intercooler etc) is stock, I don't want to risk the problems associated with it. I just want a bit more grunt but not go mad!

I've was always told by friends that anything more than 250 BHP on a front wheel drive (in oppose to a rear wheel drive) hot hatch is a waste of time anyway because you just get too much torque steer!...........I'm sure others on here will disagree and that comment will cause a whole new debate

I would agree with this rich although poly mounts and bushes with an anti lift kit will sort most of that out.

Good to know sciroccoEire, is that with everything else stock?

@sciroccorich , Yea , Engine wise that is stock!

I cant stress the difference in power and power delivery between stock Vs the remap. I love it.
I am kicking myself not getting it done sooner. Had the car 4 years , it was great at the start but after you get used to the stock power it can be kind of underwhelming

.

Addicted to the turbo sounds now which are much more noticable since the boost has been upped. And now that i have a Milltek on i drive everywhere with the windows down...

totally agree with what you said about remaps i had my 2nd car remapped and when i got this (3rd car 2.0 tsi rocc) even though it was a more powerful engine i could tell it was being held back and not as responsive, got the remap done in the 2nd week of having it, once youve had a remapped car you cant go standard
