rtech..
« on: 03 June 2013, 12:07 »
Been having a few convos with rtech recently..
Anyway they dont recomend my uprated smic...what sort of power have people got runing these?
Im running
Silicone tip
Smic
Hybrid k03s
Forge 007p
Pipercross
3 inch turbo back
And vr6 clutch and g60 fly
Also..rtech say they need my car for a week.. is this normal? Something to do with it bein a hybrid. I dont wany meg power and i want the car to b subtle..hence no fmic
Is it worth using them or is there any other recommended remap specialists who wont need the car for a week?
Cheers
Az

To be fair mate, they would only need it for so long to ensure you get the best dynamic map possible for your car. By doing this it would ensure your car is mapped the best it can be..

exaclty, it can take alot of time to map in the n75 control for hybrids ect, they haveto be worked from scratch depending on your mods etc.
if the mods are simular to something they have done before he could probably load a file he already has and work from that. but due to being hybrid, it needs some time to dail in and get it right.
i know its innconvenience to you, it would bother me too as they are miles away and would cost a fortune in fuel and train fairs etc. but needs must  :wink:

Its the same for BT they have it for a wk so they have enough time to complete a full custom map. Well worth it tho, best map you will get.

Bit of a waste of a hybrid if you ask me.... Keeping standard injectors and maf prob won't see much gain over a k03s  :undecided:


2000 GTI 1.8t ARZ, S2000 filter, DSG intake, Forge 007 dv, Catch can, R-tech custom remap, 3" Supersize Silicone TIP, Powerflex dog bone, 'The Beast' FMIC, Ultimate delete, LCR fuel pump, 3" Turbo back, K03 hybrid, Ported Manifold, S3 injectors, 80mm maf = 280bhp 270lbft :evil:

Yeah i get ya but i didny know it was a hybrid to start with lol. Plus the car it came off had standard injectors and was alleged to be very fast. I mean maybe in a few months ill have a revamp and go all out but for now funds arent the greatest so just gonna keep it toned down a bit..
Plus theres a bit of controversary around the turbo..sum people sayin its a knock off and others sayin its a hybrid.. ita got ten blades
