Hey Folks,
Thought I’d better make a quick post to address some of the questions raised here......
@Monkeyhanger
“Just look at the meticulous work that the tuning company had to go to just to apply the map”I’ll take that as a compliment – Thanks!
“The boxes out there are enabling far bigger power increases too”Really??? I’m not sure what Dyno plots you are looking at!
Our development vehicle was tested on Dyno Dynamics (very well known to show low figures relative to most other Dynos) and made 220.7hp
The DTUK Octavia (I assume you are referring to DTUK as you have one of their boxes) was Dyno’d at Shark performance and made 220.8hp
Anyhow, I really don’t want this to turn into a DTUK vs CARBON thread as that is just futile.
They are very different products both having their own pros and cons and as such I don’t think should be compared directly.
There will always be people that will prefer to use a tuning box over a remap and likewise there will always be people that would prefer to have a remap over a tuning box!
It’s been this way for well over 10 years and I can’t see it changing anytime soon!
On another note....... hats off to Andrew @ DTUK! It seems you have a very nice product that will suit certain people down to the ground.
Looks like a properly developed product that delivers very good feedback from everyone that has tried one, and in the event that support is needed it seems to be fast and efficient – a far cry from most of the other tuning box companies out there - keep up the good work.
