You want a re-map mate, not a chip. Chipping cars is best left to the Cosworths and RS Turbo days!!

Look into the Remap section of the site sponsered ny R-Tech...  :wink:

ummm... No not really. If you wanted speed then the 1.8T is what you need.

the re-map section is here http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?board=74.0

Your going to get hardly any power gains from a remap (10bhp or there abouts, same as taking a sh!t before you get in :D) but it should make it feel sharper and improve throttle response. It doesn't surprise me that your mates 1.4 can keep up, its a painfully slow engine :(

Your best bet is to sell it and get a 1.8T :afro:
