My car is now too powerful

[Egbutt Wash]

Too quick for these slippy country roads around here.
That's the bluefin DSG upgrade.

Must organise that Quaife.

Think how I feel!

The manual boys suffer more though

Go for the lower power map for this time of year.

Find it brilliant. (270BHP just enough!)

It will be OK once the roads warm up a bit 

When I had a TVR I never managed to get the power down in anything other than perfect conditions .... That car had 300 bhp as well but was obviously RWD . 

I think the problem is we expect a miracle because the car normally gets it's power down so well - 300 bhp through the front wheels is a hell of alot and if a TVR can't do it there is no way a Golf with a remap will do it any better.

TBH I think it copes with the power very well .... but I know what you mean - which is why I am still using the older DSG map by Superchips on my car instead of the newest more powerful one .... though that is sitting on the computer waiting to be uploaded

oops, You should be fine with your 240 bhp :embarassed:

Spinning the wheels is more about the torque than the HP.

Sure does, but more BHP usually equals more torque

How much power you running through yours Hurdy??

[Egbutt Wash]

The torque is much higher at 3000 revs than it used to be (power too, torque is just power/revs).

Nearly slid off over a bridge today.  Glad it wasn't a 4WD car faffing about shuffling power about, if the back had broken away I'd be in the river.  As it was good old front drive understeer scrubbed off the speed.

Don't know why you K04 chaps bother remapping.
