Is the difference big, no other mods just chiptuned engines, mine AGU did 15.3 sec 1/4 mile time, I have a friend with AUM waiting for remap and I wondered if his car is going to be much faster than mine after he ramps too?
-
Depends on the company mapping it and the map being used i assume - as in a custom map should in theory give a more optimum performance for that specific engine whereas a generic map may differ slightly depending upon engine condition, etc etc.
Having said that a generic map is generally AGU -> 195bhp / AUM -> 210bhp as a rough guide...so maybe slightly quicker?

:edit: ffs :rolleyes:

Again, to avoid starting a new thread, and it is loosly related to the topic in hand - i was looking on the r-tech website the other day and noticed that they do a 225bhp ("spec 2") remap for my AUM - is this simply a case of paying the extra and hey-presto you have 225 instead of 210 or is it assuming you have an exhaust system fitted etc etc?
-
i think that is more geared toward the more moded engines full exhaust fmic etc :wink:
-
^ Yeah, Stage 2 normally involves a FTB exhaust, some sort of induction with sports filter and a custom remap to suite the mods.

So is this an upgrade you have to put on when you put on an Aftermathet exhaust ? :undecided:
-
No, you dont HAVE to put it on.

good thing about a aum is that the map sensor, will allow the car to boost as is required. With a agu the boost level is set and thats it, nothing more.
i.e you have a k03s but you decide to fit a k04, the car will utilise the k04 due to the increased boost pressure, a agu wont even know its fitted and prob spike causing boost cut.
Several advantages to a aum but i still prefer my agu, personal preference though
