How much BHP
« on: 04 May 2009, 21:19 »
Hi all, recently got a gti but its only the 1.8 20v. Its got a cat back powerlow stainless exhaust system and a pipercross panel filter on it, what sort of bhp gain would i be looking at with  remap from r-tech?? worth doing  :sad:

I know if it was a turbo charged engine then i could get sily power increase, i had it done on my TDI octavia which took it from 110 to 140bhp at the wheels and the torque was amazing. but is it worth doing on a NA engine.

hello mate

at our prices yes its worth doing,you would gain 8 to 10bhp maximum with a much smoother throttle response,and much smoother drive throughout the whole rev range.
