Edition 30 GTI Engine?

[DAZ$TAR]

Agreed.

Marketing should have picked up on that

Maybe call it a GTI S3 or something....it would have made my eyes light up anyway !

I was just about to say why not give it the S3 chip so it can enjoy the same Bhp.....but realised that it would clash with the R32 

Anyway, back to re-maps......

I reckon 280Bhp would be just about right.....300....maybe a bit greedy 

Can someone please enlighten me what the guys do ?

Is it a chip replacement ? Re-programme ? Is it done once and thats it ? Will it delivery the power at the same point on the rev range or is it top endy ?

My evo 6 as standard was quick, very drivable and very fun, so I got greedy, fitted exuast, down pipe, filter, ecu and the boost raised to 1.5 and the darn thing felt SLOWER !

Case all the boost was 5,000 rpm onwards

Before it was 2,000 rpm

So many questions !

it would be a straight remap to 307 bhp, if its similar to the old version of the kkk k04 it will overboost to 25psi and hold at about 21psi.

thanks for the help, I wanna gonna ask what it boosts at

so 25 psi - thats circa 1 bar ?

You think it worth while to fit a dash mounted Boost Gauge ?

Thanks

The S3 gives 1.2bar - linky: http://www.vwvortex.com/artman/publish/audi_news/article_1801.shtml

Hi Daz,

It will most likely be a remap of the chip in the car through the OBD port.

Will it delivery the power at the same point on the rev range or is it top endy ?

Shouldn't be "top endy" as most remaps tend to have an increase in power and torque throughout the rev range, although the peak power and torque are usually moved up the rev range slightly.

Cheers Hurdy !

How long now mate ?

25 psi is 1.7 bar, there's 14.7 psi to 1.0 bar

They boost quite high then !

Standard Evo 6 was .9 bar

Modified with filter and zorst was 1.2/ 1.3

Then it would fuel cut - horrible braking sensation (ecu protecting engine) - very violent

So then it was a Ralliart ECU with no fuel cut and allowed it to boost to 1.5bar (which equated to 300Bhp roughly)

But, Con Rod bolts had to be replaced because of the extra load and the next step was a uprated fuel pump !

Now this is pretty much a group N Rally car for the road ! The golf is a 'hot hatch' and all it requires is a simple remap with no other alterations !!!!!!!!!

Scary stuff !

Is it because the VAG engines are so robust that they handle the extra power easily ?

Or are the Mitsi engines highly stressed anyway and perhaps the strength isn't there ? Which sounds crazy as they are road going rally cars !
