remap gt tdi mk6 in glasgow

[branchinghenk]

hey im looking into getting the car remapped, can anyone recommend anyone in glasgow?

Is it a standard result or does it vary from company to company?

iv read this on another forum

------> i had my gtd 140 remaped about 6 months back ,before that i tried a tuning box on but there was no comparison to the remap the car has so much more power ,it was done by celtic tuning
standard figures are 2.0 TDi CR 138 bhp 236 lbft
tuned figures 195 bhp 328 lbft
they are a mobile service from cornwall to cumbria cost £313 all in
find them at www.celtictuning.co.uk


Does that sound good?

cheers (im not to clued up on cars incase you have not noticed)

pretty sure thats an ecu out job ask 1 of the forum tuners they will know best

Depends.......

Early 140 MK6's went by OBD. Up to 09 plates have a good chance. Its 59 plate on thats likely to be an ECU out job

All GTD's are ECU out jobs though 

[branchinghenk]

its an 09.

Is this process you talk of a big deal? Does it cost much and does it make a noticeable difference?

cheers for the help guys!

[Rhyso]

Big difference involved!!

Remove wipers, scuttle panel, anti-tamper bolts then the ECU. open up ECU, bench flash it and stick it back together

Other way is simply plug into the diagnostic port by your feet in the drivers foot well

On an 09 you have a good chance of the latter but nothing is guaranteed in this game 


In terms of performance a remap is always worth the money    the results are the same no matter what process is required but expect to pay more for the ECU way obviously

excellent info rhyso, thank you.

Now anyone any idea where to get such a thing done in jock land?

iv found someone and they are wanting 360 quid. Is this an ok price?

Thats about the going rate for an ECU out job 

Have they quoted you a 2nd price should it be done via the OBD port??

[branchinghenk]

no they never mentioned. shall i kid on i know what i am talking about and ask for second quote should it be done via the OBD port?

[Rhyso]

Who has quoted you out of interest?

I;d certainly ask the question    I've done a handful of MK6's which have been 09 plates and they have been via the OBD port

It is Russian Roulette mind
