Title: noobie from chatham, Kent
Post by: darthcrab on 29 November 2007, 18:19

hi guys, just got my first Golf GTi 1.8t yesterday (although im sure I dont need to elebarate on engine size on a gti site :undecided:), its a mk4, always had jap cars, but as baby is due in few months, a nice 5dr was hard to come accross on jap scene, integra, s13`s, evo....
must say, very happy so far, looks good, goes well, nice interior, pretty much dont know why ive never looked at one before...
any advise is great, filter, exhuast, bov.. nothing major or silly, just so I can still enjoy he car when baby isnt in it :grin:
cheers guys, James :cool:

yeah a remap has been mentioned by a couple of people. my brothers mate has a gti, and he works for VW, he has told me he can remap it at his work on his computer... is he talking rubbish or is this legit? bigboystoys quoted £350 for a map which has the same power increase as im told can be done for a drink to matey.
£350 wasnt a bad price in my eyes, so I wont complain either way really
