Newbie needing advice for tuning please!!
« on: 11 June 2010, 17:40 »
 Hey peeps, just got a golf 1.8t on a W plate and i'm gonna be tuning it up, but was wondering whats worth doing and what power i will achieve, and if you have any advice for where to go or if i'm doing wrong.

So far i have put a pipercross filter on it.

The plans are as follows:
Forge 007p dump valve, silicone inlet pipe, turbo back exhaust (large bore??), and a r-tech custom remap.  :smiley:

And is it possible if someone could tell me if i got the ko3 or the ko3s turbo on it??
-as i said i'm a newbie!!!!

Cheers guys!!!


2000 GTI 1.8t ARZ, S2000 filter, DSG intake, Forge 007 dv, Catch can, R-tech custom remap, 3" Supersize Silicone TIP, Powerflex dog bone, 'The Beast' FMIC, Ultimate delete, LCR fuel pump, 3" Turbo back, K03 hybrid, Ported Manifold, S3 injectors, 80mm maf = 280bhp 270lbft :evil:

Ko3, should see you about 200bhp if your engine is in good nick, with the mentioned mods
