GTD and Revo
« on: 06 July 2010, 12:33 »

Does anyone have a GTD that has been Revo'd?

I am interested in knowing the differences that the tuning provides.
I love my GTD

Never heard anything so comical in all my days, a remapped GTD, f**k sake for the price difference from a GTD to a GTI, why didnt you just buy a GTI ?  :grin:

I see this torch paper and I'm drawn to the light.  :grin:

A revo'd GTD is 208bhp, a standard GTI is 210bhp

More torque on the GTD yeah, but it needs it, its a frickin tank.

Where is this faster bit you speak of ?

I bought a GTD because I wanted a GTD. If I had wanted a GTI, I would have ordered a GTI.

I like diesel cars - is that so bad?

Why is it comical for people to buy a GTD and get it remapped? If someone buys a GTI and gets it remapped they aren't slagged?!

On paper, the GTI is quicker but from my experience, the GTD is every bit as fast in the real world.

Few different reasons why people buy diesels.

For me insurance per year is miles cheaper. Tax is cheaper and the fuel is better as i live far away.

Just a few reasons.
Diesel power all the way
