Bit of a strange one, but does having the car mapped mean its sounds different in any way?, just curious really

Hey Tone, dont know on the 1.8t, but mine definatly sounds different under hard accelleration!

Can really hear the turbo spooling up, altough when i had mine mapped i also got a cai at the same time! :smiley:
