Its had a full custom map, as in he downloaded my file and tweaked it all. Instead of just replacing it with a generic scirocco R remap.
Only issue now is trying to put the power down. 2nd starts spinning at higher revs, 3rd onwards is fine. In the wet ive had it spinning at 80+ in 4th

2017 R remapped
Hi all, had my 2017 R remapped a few weeks back by my friend who runs AET Motorsport in Normanton. He runs on a hub dyno, so power is measured at the wheels. Car was fit with a RamAir intake, and before mapping made 268hp at the wheels, which is roughly 289bhp. After remap it made 308hp at the wheel...

Re: New personal lease Scirocco R coming late Feb/ early Mar
I've also done the flapper mod. Done it on the ramp at work but you could probably access it by laying on the floor. I agree it does drone more at 70/80 ish. As obviously from standard the exhaust would normally be shut at these speeds in 6th. Video of a few revs in mine. Sounds much better imo. htt...

Re: New personal lease Scirocco R coming late Feb/ early Mar
Few more pics of mine, amazing how different the colour looks depending on sunlight. Some pics from 8am on a dull morning, others around 1pm the same day when the sun came out. http://i948.photobucket.com/albums/ad322/Andycorsasport/1C097FF4-55BB-4135-8DE6-DCE87617C64E_zps4ynkfcoj.jpg http://i948.ph...

Re: Make my R louder
As above, I also want to know how to do it also. i.e, do you have the engine on/off whilst doing it etc?
Had mine since Monday, as much as it sounds brilliant, a little more noise wouldn't hurt

Re: New personal lease Scirocco R coming late Feb/ early Mar
I know it doesn't effect body shop costs. But if you were to lease/finance a brand new Scirocco R with an RRP of roughly £32k, as soon as you drive away you'll lose probably £4/5k Say it gets stolen/written off in the first month, and insurance value it at a retail price of £28k, and you owe £31k on...

Re: New personal lease Scirocco R coming late Feb/ early Mar
Yes definitely take out GAP!! I work as a bodyshop estimator and its amazing how many people don't take it, and god for bid anything happens, you can end up thousands out of pocket. I took it out with the lease company, £299 for 2 years. Could have found it cheaper else where but just went for the e...

Re: New personal lease Scirocco R coming late Feb/ early Mar
Brilliant thanks. Hopefully get the call/email soon. I'm going to collect mine from Crewe, could have had it delivered but this is the first time I've ever had a brand new car. And even though it's a lease I fancied the "collect new car" feeling. I'll stick plenty of pics up once I have it...

Re: Breaking in period on 2017 Scirocco R DSG.
I don't think cars need "running in" as such like the old days. I think aslong as you allow it to warm up and cool down properly etc, youll be fine. Engines will be run up on an engine dyno anyway I would have thought

Re: New personal lease Scirocco R coming late Feb/ early Mar
I can always take the map off once it goes back if needed, my friend has his own tuning company so he will be doing it anyway. Hopefully ill only be a week behind you then!
