Remap to VOLKSWAGEN Golf 1.9 TDi 110ps to 150ps

[Rhyso]

don't get hung up on 0-60 and top speed figures as these won't change much (prob a second off 0-60) and top speed is unlikey as the gearing remains the same

Its the 30mph + figures that you'll see the biggest change - expect a couple of seconds knocked off 30-70, 40-80 etc etc 

No other upgrades a required for a Spec 1 map either    just make sure your car is in tip top working order otherwise a remap will multiply your problem

Haven't bought it yet and will be running it for a while before I go ahead with the remap. I'm going from a Clio 1.5 dCi 65 so I think shaving 6 seconds off my 0 - 60 is enough for now. 190 BHP might be a bit much until I get used to the car

haha yeah the Golf should be a fair bit quicker    Just perhaps don't expect it to handle as well as the Clio  out of the box the Golf is pretty poor in standard form 

Good luck with your search

Nick,

What is the price of a R-Tech Spec1 remap for a golf?

If I was to have a remap done on a Golf 4 1.9 TDI PD 150 by R-Tech and took it to 190bhp do you have any figures on estimated 0 - 60 and top speed I might expect?

And if I decided I wanted to make other performance enhacing mods would you recommend doing these before or after the remap or does this not matter?

Cheers,

Mike

Hello,



The 110 AHF & ASV engines uses the older mechanical pump fuel delivery and the by remapping you will get close on 140bhp, but by fitting .216 nozzles. and a custom remap should see you closer to 160+bhp, for more power you will need a bigget turbo and remap to match.

If your looking for a and your planning on tuning go for one of the PD version, 115bhp 130bhp or 150bhp, all of the PDs can be tuner really well with the stock parts, plus its very easy to go donw the bigger turbo route.

0-60 time for a remapped 130pd on the will be around 2 seconds flat....on the dyno..lol  in the real would I would not have a clue, but in most cases a remap will shave 2 seconds off a 3/4 mile time.  The price of the remap will be £250 all inc, which includes rr and diagnostics.

And I take it I'd need to get to Hinckley for it to be done properly? Could you please tell me the major differences between the R-Tech map and something such as this:

Tuning box and a good remap = night and day

40bhp 60lbft from a tuning box which only changes the fuel injection quantity, IMO I think is a bit optimistic.  If I remapped a TDI by another 40bhp just by adding extra fuel then there would be lots of smoke, to keep the black smoke down you need to up the boost to clean the burn.   With a remap you can change the injection timing, software torque limiters, Fuel IQ on a linear scale, IQ vs boost to limit the smoke, pump scales ect..

The box might well give the power gains, but I have never see a box make quoted power more like 25bhp/35lbft.

Fair enough, worth the extra pennies getting it done properly I suppose but where would I have to go?

Its worth paying less money to get a good remap done...

Ah I suppose. I was offered £50 discount for repeat custom and £70 December offer though so it would have only been £175. Travel to get it remapped is the only problem.

They offer a mobile remap,. They come to you.
