Title: Golf GTD re-map
Post by: lyle82 on 22 June 2011, 16:57
Had my 59 plate 5dr GTD remapped today. :smiley:

Was done by Paramount Performance in Slough, this was the first they had done and cost me 350+vat but! they are going to start charging more like £500 as they had to remove the ECU and also it was a nightmare on the 1st dyno run as the ESP kept cutting in even though it was turned off so they had to mess about for a bit. If you have plans to doe this to urs my advice is go somewhere they haven’t remapped a mk6 before, and keep it :lipsrsealed:

Started at 171bhp which was more than I expected then remapped to 203.1bhp not bad! Only had a little test since done but I can see the deference, especially in third, pulls really strong. Apparently i need to give it a week or so to settle as the cars ECU needs to re-adjust itself. After that apparently I may even get more BHP but let’s see.

Looking forward to the bug fest at Santa pod in July, will see what i can get on the strip, anyone going with a STD MK6 GTI? Fancy a race!!  :evil:

Print out below. Another thing to note if you are considering this yourself, to put it back to standard you will have to pay again for the mk6 due to the need to remove the ECU, well that’s what paramount told me anyway...

Bit far for me buddy! nice mk3 had the wolfsburg addition many years ago, until i bent it....

Sorry but why is the power so lumpy or am I missing something obvious?

That torque and power curve look bloody awful. Not to mention what it's doing to the engine.

Get to a proper tuner and get that crap one refunded and standard map put on.

I would say the dip at the top end was a soft fuel limp, or the axis in the map software is incorrect and missed the calibration updates in the higher rpm.  I am sure a 10 min logging session will shed some light on what's going on.  This ain't an ecu I remap at the moment so cannot comment on the setpoint limiters. I would get it checked out

True I was looking at wrong part for the stock graph..Trying to look at it via an I phone not a good idea Lol.  Now looking at the right tuned curve where it steps up I can see what's going on.

I mean can see whats going on the steps in the graphs. Could be boost oscillations as on the stock run the peak then could be where dip the ecu would switch to open loop to the dc% mapping, and the map has highlighted this and caused the oscillations.

This could go on for a while and I'm due to go on my hols on Thursday  :rolleyes:

IMHO I think the maps just fine and no amount of logging will sort the problem in that graph from what I can see - my graph looks very different but there is a good reason for that.

I'll give the answer to the issue when I return from my hols :wink:
Title: Re: Golf GTD re-map
Post by: RTechUK on 05 July 2011, 15:30
If it aint down to the front wheels pulling out the rollers during a power run  and the stock map was smooth at the same points then it must be down the ecu requests causing the issues? 
Title: Re: Golf GTD re-map
Post by: The Doc on 05 July 2011, 21:01
Call me old fashioned but I can't go on my hols leaving people in suspense.

If the car felt like the dyno looks then the OP would be far from happy, when he seems ecstatic with his remap.

IMHO

They've not set the dyno up correctly for a GTD hence the massive "squiggle" that clearly shouldn't be there on the end of the stock map run, this is also evident when the OP stated that the mapping company struggled with the traction control on his GTD which is never a problem on the golfs I've mapped.

The "twin peaks" are simply not there on either a standard or correctly modded GTD so I'm assuming the cars also either not strapped properly or it's further problems brought on by not setting the dyno correctly for the GTD.

I have no idea why they allowed a stock run that looked like that to go out on a graph.

(I'd still like to drive it though to make sure - anybody up for a 2p bet?  :grin:)

It shouldn't, they run pretty linear not that that really means anything as I've driven cars with maps as smooth as anything on the dyno that are just horrible on the road and driven cars that feel great on the road but look horrible on the dyno.

When I get 5 I'll post some plots up for the GTD - it's about time  :grin:

Herr Doc,

I am really interested in seeing a mk6 GTD remap dyno graph as I am swaying on the fence, love my GTD std but it is not a patch on my old stage 2+ mkV GTI which had 275BHP and 315lbft...........

thanks

John

p.s its also v SLOWwwwwwwwww to spool up....... remap and dpf removal?

Remind me on Monday when I'm in work and I'll download some from the dyno for you  :wink:

Am i being dense and cannot see the 201HP figure? Or have you split the graphs down so one is a torque only representation?

Higher of the two is the BHP, lower is the Torque
 
I need to do some standard runs but this involves ECU removal and I was pushed for time this morning, I've got the original runs from when the car was new but they are around 165 BHP, I think the car will have opened up quite a bit since then  :wink:
