Another remap question! (1.8T)

[Damoegan]

I'm looking to get a remap after christmas (prob feb/march) and would like peoples comments on the difference from standard.

I've got a mk4 cupra 1.8T and who would you's recommend? and whould I need and mode for a stage one remap???

Thanks

 

[evo2345]

Revo or P-torque. i have revo stage 2 and i would recomend it

 

[Damoegan]

Would I need any mods for a stage one mate?

I'm thinking revo as there is a dealer near me.

 

[evo2345]

if you do remap it i would recomend getting a Forge DV because the std DV is pants

 

[Damoegan]

Would it blow like bud???

 

[evo2345]

the std valve tend to fail because of the increased boost, the forge 007 valve wil do the job or the new Split r valve

 

[Damoegan]

Ok bud. But surely the standar one will last for a bit if I'm not booting it??

 

[evo2345]

the std one may be ok give it a try, if it fails you can pick up a 2nd hand forge dv for £40-50

 

[Damoegan]

Nice one, thanks for the advice mate

 

[evo2345]

no worries

get on to performance torque mate and get booked in before christmas, i know you said february but sell your granny and get a p-torque pre christmas special, 225 quid for your 1.8t. they're in wolverhampton. bit of a drive like but not compared to me, 300 miles each way last week. lol amazing transformation. go on get it done.

Dont tempt me any more jamie

Read the sigi for a guide to how good stage 1 is on p-torque.

Only other t'ing I'd suggest is a green cotton or K&N panel filter to help it breathe, and if you can get a 4 bar fuel pressure regulator - this isn't necessary though

What figures do p-torque quote for stage 2 ric???

 

[Ric 2001]

Hasn't quoted an figures but Will would like the car for 2 days to map it..... Only problem is that I can't get the time off work... as I use it to commute. That means I going to miss out on the christmas special

i cant see it being much over what you already have what do the K03S turbo max out at?? any ideas

sorry mate, i'm not tempting you i'm helping you lol . remap for 225 quid is better than giving it away, you could get a remap + a forge 007 or bailey dump valve for less than a REVO remap. worry about a panel filter later, it was a four hour drive for me but you'd do it in about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. go on you know you wanna.

 

[Damoegan]

so very tempting. I'll have to see when i could fit it in when i'm back at work in the morning. How much difference was they over standard jamie?

 

[jamie paton]

unbelievable mate, honestly. its the torque more than anything. the reason i got it done was because i went to a scottish meet recently and a guy had a remapped leon cupra and i could not get past him, so i'd say that after a remap you'll be putting out cupra R power. i'm just waiting for a rolling road day to get up and running so i can get some figures for the car. but at that price it really is a give away. my car should be putting out between 260 and 270 bhp...

 

[jamie paton]

ps mate if your on a budget just get the remap, worry about the dump valve later, i'd imagine it'd take a few months for it to fail even booting it. persaude the wife/ burd to buy it for your crimbo.
