carbon chip tuning stage 2 map?? reviews?
« on: 01 September 2014, 21:56 »
hi all, my golf mk4 AGU is finally ready for the road after being off the road for 3 years, it remapped at the moment stage 1 @225hp, ive now fitted a K04/K03 hybrid, (machined out and bigger compressor wheels) supposedly capable of 350hp, but i dont what that kind of power as ive not fitted rods etc

Its got :
3" MAF
FMI
Cold Air Induction
Silicone bigger turbo intake pipe
Saab red top injectors
4 bar FRP
3" down pipe(decat)
Full stainless with only rear box
Forge 007p
might be more bit but cant remember :)

I want to run what ever is safe people say 300 max but to be safe i would say 280/290 max, but like i say safe power.

Right to my point how many have used carbon chiptuning and whats your views, ive read a few good ones but though id make a fresh post hope no one minds.....

thanks shaun

Mine is a stage 2 K03s that Nick wrote for me, Carbon Chiptuning guys are very good and I highly recommend them, I think R Tech is more known on here but honestly Carbon guys are great.  :smiley:

Great stuff  :smiley:
Might have to bell them...

Don't get me wrong Nick@rtech is spot on but he wants me leave the car with him for a week and I can't do that, that's who's mapped it last time.

Just spoke to carbon, and he is a top bloke, unfortunately they don't like to do 1.8t with k04 with bigger injectors etc as they are a pain to get bang on in all conditions and so time consuming,  looks like I will have to make the sacrifice and take it to the king of 1.8t mappers Nick@ Rtech, like I said earlier nick is spot on and his customer service is next to non, I will ring him tomorrow and get it booked in :wink:
