Title: New member..150 GTI remap
Post by: Drunkmonkey1987 on 14 June 2011, 13:34
Hi

New to the site just bought a Golf GTI 150T  :smiley: ugrade from the 1.6 SE

Really thinking of getting it remapped from 150 to 192bhp but have heard it can make the engine blow after about 20 or 30 thousand miles because of the extra stress?

It is a mk4 2003 with 40,000 miles and one lady owner  :grin: before I had it so it is in great nick, would a remap really be that much stress on that new a car?

Thanks

First of welcome to the forum.

It won't blow up if and if mapped correctly you'll see more BHP ( :grin:)

My 2p's worth of advice is talk to this guy, he's much closer to you than I am: http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?action=profile;u=1303
