It depends on the vehicle you have - 99% of GTI's are not protected whereas 99% of CR TDI Golfs are  :undecided:

Hi Doc; sorry for crashing this thread; but is that the case for early MK6 GT140 TDIs too? I was hoping to have mine 'tweaked' as warranty up next month (yep; I've nearly turned 60!). She's an 09 plate GT140CR; delivered on August 1st 2009 if that helps?

Be interested to know what you think.

Cheers,

Yesterday I'd have said 99% secure, today I'd say your 50/50  :wink:

So what would you expect to get out of a GTI chaps?

Do you have any dyno print outs for a mapped car overlayed against a standard curve? What differentiates your map from apr, revo etc?

GTI drivers like all the other mk6 drivers are more than a little weary about having their maps / details splashed all over the net.....

I'll ask some clients if they mind me publishing on here first.

Your looking around 240bhp - 250bhp on a manual car - is your car manual or DSG as I've had some fun and games with a few of the DSG torque limiters pulling back the power towards the top end of the rev range, I've resolved this now but it did have me scratching my head for a while  :rolleyes:
