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

Hi Nick ,

Do you guys do any free "time restricted" trials?

I've never had a remap before and want to make sure that I like it before I start parting with nearly £300 (or closer to £400 once I add insurance in).

I know normally within 5 mins of driving whether I'll get on with something or not - so a trial would be ideal.

If you don't do trials, do you have any mk5 gtis already stage 1 mapped that someone can be taken out in?

Sorry for the questions...

Thanks

Just do it  :evil:

Best money I ever spent on my car  :laugh: , although DSG map wasn't available when I had mine done last year. Will be having that loaded when I've got some pennies together

Both you guys should look at the R-Tech customer cars thread (in remapping board) to get paper proof of figures, and also accurate reviews of how awesome the maps are...

Do you really feel the difference?

On a scale of 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest) what would you class the change by remap as?

I'm looking for a very noitecable increase in the "pushed into the seat" feeling when accelerating, but I want to retain the power delivery curve of the stock car as I dislike excessive wheelspin etc - would a r-tech remap achieve both of those?

(sorry I'm trying to build a picture of the experience before I part with £350 quid odd)
