Golf GTD remap review...

[countrytrucker]

That's about a fast as I ever drive.

Did you pay £400+VAT ajmoir?

are there any down sides apart from the potential warranty scenario?

did you have any input into the map?

cheers,

I asked my dealer what would happen to my warranty if I Revo'd my GTD.

He said they would return the map to standard if they needed to then do all the warranty work.

I would have to get the Revo map put back on but this would be a small charge as I would have already paid the initial charge.

I think Revo also do a switching module to jump between standard and tuned so the standard map can be applied easily by myself. This could be an option?

Thats what I bought for mine its called a revo sps switch so I can put it back to normal should I need to.......

Bout a £100 if I remember, small little black box to plug in. Not much for £100 lol

My experience is dealers will say anything they feel like and love to BS. Unless you have what they say in writing its worth nothing.

When I have time to put it on rolling road will post readings up straight away...............

Purely in the interest of the scientific discussion around the GTD being quicker than the GTI, If you bring your car to me I'll put it on the dyno for free

This 'scientific' discussion is a non modded GTD being quicker than a GTI  sorry that still cracks me up. So wouldnt it be best to get a standard GTD to test with ?

i thought i saw the chap say he had a revo sps switch, so it can easily be put back to stock temporarily for a quick dyno run

Customer comments on the above remap:

"I was fairly new to the idea of remapping when I first contacted Craig. He explained to me the whole process, and what effect it would have on the car.

Craig came to me at work, and now he has worked his magic, the car is a different animal. Much more responsive, tons more power at low revs, and the acceleration is stunning.

I was put at ease from the first point of contact. Hugely professional job done by professional people. If you are thinking of having it done........do it. You will not regret it!!!"
