Title: Remap before or after bolt-on mods?
Post by: Mk7 rzy on 06 February 2018, 21:57
Hi forum folk,

Question for you all.

I'm currently stock with my GTI and plan on upgrading the intake/intercooler within the next couple of months. I've always been one for hardware before software, but I'm hearing mixed thoughts.

I know pound for pound a remap is the best HP gain you can have, but does it really matter what mods (be it bolt-on/bolt-off mods) are completed before the map? I've been advised by a few friends that the stage 1 map can handle standard mods.

Some experience/knowledge from you lot would help!
