It wont be a custom stage 2 map for a ko3 on an AGU...... I dont even think that there is a second stage for said turbo. The Ko3s has 2 different stages. Get a front mound and Ko3s and youll get around 236 bhp and 280 ftlbs..............

i not had a remapp just got those bits on car in preperation, i emailed them asking what they could do for my ko3 with my mods they replied,

"Unlike other tuners and companies, every R-Tech remap session will come with pre tuning inspection which includes visual inspection of the engine, turbo, boost pipes, PCV, depending what we find this could also lead to a smoke test, a basic fault code and fuel trim read then a full data logging to check the stock fuel, timing and boost is where it should be.  Once we are happy with the car we will then continue to the tuning stage which includes before and after dyno power runs on our rolling road.  If we do find problems with your car we will try to put them right, or point you in the right direction.  Faults we tend to find  with the  engines are leaking PCV pipes or boost pipes, MAF ect..


In theory is you have a flat spot around 2000rpm then we can point you in the right direction of even fix it during the mapping session



Can provide a custom remap for your AGU to match all your hardware tuning bolt-ons .  The power output afterwarss on a good running engine will be around 195-199bhp 220-240lbft/


Total price will be £290 all inc for the R-Tech live Dyno Spec2 custom remapping session.
