I assume you had your ECU remapped. By whom?

Post by: RedRobin on 01 March 2008, 09:53: ....Frankly, in view of how complex the 2.0T FSI engine is, I would not have even considered any tuner who doesn't have a well established reputation and history of a working relationship with VAG. But everyone has to start somewhere I guess.

How about posting some info for our benefit about Turbochips(?) and your car?
