If you can get the power down then you can clear a 1.5s of the 0-60 time from a good stage 1 remap.  I got mine down to 4.5s last summer running 330lbft 240ish bhp and now 290lbft 260bhp 4.8s but with lots of extra mods. http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=2212104622033

0-60 after mapping is all down to the driver, you could have another 100lbft and gets slower 0-60 due to wheel spin.

Or cheat and get launch control added to the mapping :-)

What's the cost of a remap for a STD mk5 and will fuel economy suffer at all?

Starsky did you go for the standard or custom stage 1 remap?
I'm trying to decide which to go for, see recent post, booked in for couple of weeks time.

We can provide the R-Tech spec1 remap for £250 all Inc, the price will include full visual inspections if the engine and common components which tend to cause issues post remap, you will also get a full pre remap logging session to make sure the engine is in safe condition to tune, plus you will also get before and after power runs on the rolling road. For an extra £40 you can upgrade the map to a custom spec1 map which will be unique to your car, we can filter the flat spots and adjust the throttle mapping to your driving style.  As for mpg, if you drive it hard all the time then you will be worse off, but normal like for like driving I gave had customer come back with reports of 10-12% mpg gains.

If you need any more information you can drop me a pm or contact the workshop direct on 01455 617233 or if your local you could always pop in and have a free pre remap inspection and a trial taster remap to see if it's what your looking for.  (try before you buy ;-))
