Looked them up. All sounds impressive. But they're in Leicestershire?
I'm in Surrey. Sorry if I've found the wrong company.

I think that's them, I decided on Amd as they are just down the road from me and have been told they are okay. Will let you know what the car is like when I finally pick it up :)

Well I have picked the car up and it is like driving a new car, it is so smooth to drive and the acceleration, well, what can I say lol. I'm certainly going to take it out for a run later on :)

Figures wise, it has gone from 202 bhp & 208 torque to 259 bhp and 282.8 torque so quite a massive increase in torque so hopefully should be much more cost efficient on fuel.

In addition to the remap I had a full service, cat back exhaust, charcoal cartridge, dv valve and cam follower so it has been an expensive day! Amd did do me a deal on the cam follower as I had all the other work done and the remap had been reduced by 50 quid the day before my car went in so it's all good.

The figure increase for bhp sounds about right.
But I thought on our mk5,the original torque was 280? And after the remap it goes up to around 360. But I may have got my numbers completely muddled up on that,so please don't quote me on that! :wink:
Anyway,the fact that it feels like driving a new car,says it all really. Enjoy your 'new car'! :smiley:

I'm not sure on the torque I shall have to google it lol. Just took it down to Southend, was so tempted to floor it along the A13 but was on best behaviour as I had a passenger :)

Just thought i'd update on the car, it's fu***ng awesome tbh. It just runs so much better and is definitely much better on fuel consumption. Took it up to the midlands at the weekend for ultimate dubs and had no issues even though I ended up sitting in traffic for nearly 2 hours!
