beginning to wonder- 1.8t power

[AlanD]

I'm not spending that kind of money on one of these sh!tty cars.

R-Tech do some pretty good deals on remaps for the 1.8T and you will get a discount for being on the forum. For a few hundred quid to release the potential of the 1.8T it really isn't that much.

well if you're not prepared to put the work and money into it stop moaning about the Golf not having any power

gains can be had other ways, you dont have to go the £300 quid route to get an extra 5bhp from a shiney pipe, and it doesnt have to be stainless steel either. yes, stainless is better, but not the expense i want to pay at the moment.
maybe upgrading the turbo, remap and a Diy decat.
and im not moaning either, just gauging the fact that my 16v seemed to have more grunt.

or just buy a MkII Valver

but then you are limited with tunability, the point i was getting at is, for the cost of decent exhaust outweighs the benifits..

get it remapped then, £200 and you'll have a 190bhp ish Golf
