Remap - R-Tech.

[ara]

Hi MJV,

Getting the remap tomorrow afternoon, I will let you know what I think.  Although to be fair the guy has only good reviews so expecting the remap to be good.

R-Tech are based in Hickley Leicestershire, see following link for ebay listings.  They carry out mobile remaps also.

Cheers

hi nick

thanks for the reply.

ok here is the model.... 53 reg 1.8 GTI 150 BHP - AUM
also you mentioned that you do mobile remap service as well, now ideally after the remap wouldnt you need to do all the diagnostics to make sure we are getting the 'power' as specified?

so do you reckon is it worth doing it at your place rather than mobile ? coz you would have all the equipment you need at your place....(pardon my ignorance if this isnt the case)

 personally i wouldnt mind a trip to leicester but if its the same result as we get for a mobile than i wouldnt mind gettin it done at my place.

btw i live in edgware - middlesex which is just off jn 4 on m1. can you travel this far?

also can you do it on weekends, say saturday (either mobile or i come there personally)

cheers mate !

Hello.

We do work on Saturdays for mobile or Drive in sessions. You can book in to come up to us and have your car put on the dyno for before and after power runs with print outs. We only charge an extra £35 for this service. 

A full diagnostic check is included with all of our remap sessions.

If your car is highly modded then I would sugest remapping the car on the dyno and have a full custom remap session.  If your car is standard or lightly tuned ie exhaust, Induction kit etc.. then a Semi generic sw remap will be fine for your car and should see 210bhp with ease.

LOL  As I was typing this out MJV phoned me and booked in for a rolling road session for this Saturday morning.

look forward to meeting you.

Regards
Nick

Hi Nick
Got a 1999 1.8 20v N/A on your website you offer 137 bhp, is that stage 1? What would i be looking at for stage 2 and custom?
Also what is the call out price for me to get it remapped?

Hello,

Your ecu will have to be remapped direct the the chip which is inside the ecu, It cannot be remapped via OBD2. To be honest 12bhp is about the most you can get from a remap on a NA 1.8-20v a custom remap might give 2 bhp max at the cost of around £180 more.  The main gains from a remap will be the way the power is delivered, stronger mid range and better throttle response.   If your  have a remap to 137bhp, you can alway add a performance exhaust, sports cat and a cool feed induction kit to give a few extra BHP plus free up the mid range even more.

Where are your from? I will PM you the prices.
