Title: gti turbo
Post by: teddytinton on 07 August 2008, 21:39

Hi folks, newbie alert!!
Ive currently got an E30 318 is and was seriously thinking about a gti turbo. My question is with a remap what are these cars like? the standard 0-60 time is quite poor, i know its only pub talk but what would a remap do to the time? Im not a fan of top end speed, but i love the traffic light grand prix!!! how well does the mark 4 handle? Thanks for your time!!

welcome mate

search function is your friend

remap - will help a bit
handling - poor as standard but can be improved

Average re-map will put you from 150 to around 180. Acceleration is good after this and boy do you notice it!! Get a  decent induction and exhaust and your over 200!!
