Hi Guys
Been reading the forum for the last two hours and although no direct answer to my question been great to see how much info you can get from a bit of time and effort. I have just recently purchased a Leon Cupra R (225) and given i've just come out of a 200bhp ibiza fr feel i need to get it remapped to get the grin back on my face and seems to be the best £ for power option. My new LCR doesn't feel very torquey and really want that back.
My main query is with all the remaps available, is it worth spending £300 quid on a remap that jabbasport claim may take it up to 265bhp and improve the torque by the same difference, or will a remap that some people like more-bhp who for £199 can take it to 254bhp. I decided to go for a standard car as oppossed to one that had already been modded as there seem to be far too many cars with dodgy remaps and people adding mods in the wrong order which makes them a bit pointless. Is it possible to get a nice linear map rather than the kick in the back followed by instant toque death which makes the higher end of the rev range a bit flat and boring or do I just get given what I am given?
Its going to be running on completely standard parts for a little while after ,which appears to be absolutely fine, from reading the threads it looks like my next mods will be the d/v and some type of silicon inlet thingy ( sorry, not a techy), a new filter and maybe a coil pack very shortly after if it doesn't like the map.
If my gains aren't what i'd hoped for will the addition of the next mods mentioned above be likely to get more from my remap once they are fitted a few weeks after?
Any advice or experience of a reliable remapping company for less than £300 quid would be lengendary - I live in north London, but am passing peterborough where jabba the hut is based next week and was going to get it booked in then.
will keep you all posted on the out come, just like many I am not cash rich and once done, i can't afford to change anytime soon.
One last question - would you rather be attacked by one tiger sized duck or 10 duck sized tigers????
peace out
Thanks and sorry for the long message.
