i would far rather get remapped properly, Surely would be better.

Nice saff by the way...

me too

Yeah a proper remap makes sence for the same money thereabouts


Cheers for the cooment on the saph, Sold it a couple of years ago now, Actually didnt realise it was in my siggy as its never showed in previous posts. Was my childhood dream car and had it a couple of years, Big Ford fan but love the vags too

Looking at the details it was 2006 i joined yet only just got a leon in january lol, wanted one back then but couldnt get what i wanted and owned a Nice Bora 130 TDI, Passat TDI and now a Leon cupra/fr TDI .........3rd Vag i must be converted

yeah im a big ford guy too, got my dream car an escos last year but sold it.

The LCR is just so much better as a daily car.

these have been talked about lots in the TDI section, have a look back through for everyones views. But the general concensus is that a remap is better.

I had one on my skoda, I would advise against it.

The Pro's: It did give me a little more power, didn't have it RR'd but could feel a slight difference(maybe 5-10bhp). Very Cheap, fit in about 20 mins.

The Con's: Caused my temp sensor to go faulty. After a couple of month use the glue that held it all together started to degrade and it was falling apart. All it does is over fuel the car so any claim that it will give you better mpg is rubbish.

Remapped my FR at AMD last year and it was a million times better, for both pull and power, i know its 10x the cost but its well worth doing it properly.

Edit: doh! just checked the ebay link!! thought you were talking about the £40 jobbies. Why spend £400 on one of these when thats what i paid for my remap!!! Its a no brainer.
