Hi Nick,
I too have a mk5 GTI, you say your map gets 15-20bhp more than generic maps, what sort of numbers you talking about?
im looking at getting my 2005 gti remapped soon, engine code AXX its also the DSG.
If i wanted the car mapped and the DSG mapped as well, what kind of power and torque figures do you reckon i will be at?
and how much monies would i be looking at?
i only want to come to you guys, i have heard nothing but pure awesomeness about you guys!
Hello,
You looking around 240-245bhp and 260-300lbft depending on the actual software version, most of the extra gain from a custom map is not on the peak power numbers its more to do with volume/area under the torque curve. but from what we have been seeing from RR days the results from our custom mapping are getting some of the best number and smoothest curves.
With the R-Tech engine remap you will get a FREE base DSG map to up the torque limiters to allow for a stronger smoother peak torque area. For £390 you can have the custom engine remap plus a custom DSG remap set to how you want it, rpm limiter shift limiters, launch speeds ect... The results and feedback we are getting from the new DGS setup is very good. The full R-Tech DSG remap offer as standard 30% quicker upshift speeds, full manual mode whih will hold the gear, S mode which will anticipate the best gear for speed,
hey nick,
thanks for the detailed reply!
i think i will be saving my pennies and visiting you guys in the near future! only other thing is with the standard DV i have read these are very prone to go, what would you suggest as to uprating it? as far as i know the one from the k04 turbo doesnt fit? or am i being a numpty (newbie to turbos)
oh, also, were you by chance at the fast show on sunday? i was one run behind a black mk4 golf with a rollcage and rtech stickers all over it and it did a pretty quick run! by quick, about 12 seconds! lol
