Title: mk3 gti 8v over fueling
Post by: brooksey999 on 23 January 2010, 23:20

when i bought the car the old owner said the car was remapped, with loads of mods like a 4 branch manifold, post an polished head with bigger valves etc,

the cambelt slipped, couldnt find new bigger valves so iv replaced the head with a standard one,

an now it runs really rich

so want to know can i upload a standard map for the ecu or am i best just buyin a new standard ecu??

cheers

Hello,

Is it running rich across the whole band or just idle? The fuel calibration maps for the 8v are very basic so can adjust your current map so you have the correct fuel air ratio. I will take around 1hr on the dyno to set up and will cost around £70.

Hello,
