Hello,
Im new to this forum and am looking for some information regarding a Golf Mk V 2.0TDI (170ps). I am looking to buy one of these cars over the coming weeks and would be interested in getting it remapped to boost the performance somewhat.
I am also considering getting a BMW 330D, and after comparing the figures it seems that the above golf when remapped has similar figures (is actually more powerful in torque) than a standard 330D.
Am I to take these figures with a pinch of salt or is it true that a remapped golf will be on par, performance wise with a 330D? I know the golf is lighter than the 3 series which will also help.
If anyone with a remapped 2.0TDI 170ps (either A3 or Golf) could report back what their car is like to drive after the remap I would be really grateful and interested.
Or if anyone has had chance to drive both cars and could maybe compare the performance differences?
Thanks for any help :)
Nick
