Any advice on having a stage 1 without a dyno. Is it ok to do? Or would it always be better having it done with a company that does have a RR?
-
Only if you want a piece of paper that gives some guide to the impact. The RR will only be used to create that, nothing to do with the remap itself.
-
If its from a respected name I don't see an issue without as it should have had extensive testing on multiple examples of the car. The only advantage of the RR is that it will show if the cars working correctly first. If going for a RR one always get a before and after graph on the same day with the same operator and parameters to show true gains. Just numbers off a RR are meaningless.
-
The remap with RR is a custom map done for the car specifically. The remap with out RR is a generic map. Should I be favouring 1 over the other in this case?
-
Is your car significantly modified to warrant a custom map? Is there a price difference worth paying?
-
Car is standard. The custom map with RR is £100 more expensive than the none custom map without RR
-
If the generic map used is apr or revo can I have it done with confidence? The company doing the mapping is a local company so can only look at the local reviews of work done by them.
-
Both are proven over the years.
Try a search on her for more info as, both have been talked about extensively over the years on the ml6.

Can speak for Revo however APR is what I had on my old mk5 and which I currently have on my Edition35 and the gains are superb you’ll pay a little more for APR but certainly worth it!

personally i would always go for a dyno remap with a custom map for the individual vehicle, nicky at RTech would be my first port of call for this

Yeah heard great thing about the guys at R-Tech unfortunately a wee bit of a trek for me.

Thanks for the advice guys. Going to go with the custom map with RR. The same company mapped my cupra R and I loved that car once it was done.

8hr drive for me to get there but way less on route back :grin I’ve been a few times now
-
wow thats a long journey :laugh:just goes to show how good they are really
-
Got the car mapped today. Upto 300bhp 420nm and its an animal. Will take some getting use to the extra power because it feels so much faster. No lag just straight up pull an grunt
-
nice! where did you get it done?
-
Eco performance. Local place near me. 5 star reviews of everyone that goes there so was an easy decision. I think in D mode it seems to be holding the high gears abit longer than it was so im in 6th at 30mph 5th at 25mph ect so im not sure if the dsg needs mapping to sort that out or is that just the way the box is?

This is why I’d have went to r-tech as Nicky can map the dsg to suit the map :wink:
