Hi, I know this is a golf forum, but I have had a mk2 and still have a mk4 so use this forum from time to time.
Anyway I also have a 88bhp 2.5tdi Transporter, and quite fancy having her remapped, I had my mk4 20vT mapped by R-Tech a couple years back and am still pleased with it 2 years on....
Not sure if Nick and Ben remember but we met you in exeter sevices?? You mapped my AUM and my mates AGU?
So does R-tech remap Transporters? If so what bhp and price we looking at?

I remember that day really well... Some 2.5TDI 4x4 Audi had a Superchips chip in the ecu caused a car to be a non runner while I was mapping it :embarassed:. The lad with the other Golf *** TCA popped up here the other day to have his new Leon Cupra mapped on the dyno and went away with another HUGE grin.

With the greatest respect to the forum sponsors, there is at least one specialist in T4 upgrades - a guy called Ron who posts as Rake in the van world.
Have a look here, because you need more than a remap to get the best results from your 88bhp T4:

As with all things it depends how far you want to take it. I've done a few 88bhp transporters now and always with excellent results.

We are doing a 2.5 T4 with a set of 150bhp miltivan injectors from United diesel (Rake), The last one we did had issues with getting the bigger injectors to at idle correct. I spent many hours trying to get it to run right in the mapping and failed..lol only to find out more mechanical work on the pumps was needed (hammer mod and set up) to get the van to idel. But the customer was told its only SW based to get it running right so he didnt want me to touch the pump, In the end he took it to a tuner who is Rakes mate who its the T4 forums mapper....and he hit it with a hammer and it worked.
The 150bhp injecotrs, with cooler and exhaust is the way forward with the 88bhp 102bhp T4s.
My mates Will went the full hog and fitted a hybrid turbo to his van http://www.tidytransporters.co.uk/
