Hello,

I have a s3 2002 225bhp remapped to 275bhp (Cant be sure) i have just put it on the rolling road and its saying its running at 220bhp, the chap a the garage told me it had been remapped? I don’t understand 220bhp I am a bit confused the garage told me that’s fine "Its not i want 275" lol :aargh4:

Can you help?

Thanks

Either it was never remapped in the first place or it could do with a good service.

It’s not that, just replaced

Air filter
oil filter
Fuel filter
Oil
Cockpit filter
clutch/flywheel / hydraulic bearing
Pads and discs all round
I cleaned the throttle body
New suspension kit
Front wishbone bushes
Front anti roll bar
Refurbished the wheels

Just started on the body work

If anyone can help regarding the lack of power would be a great help?

Thanks

in that case, seems like it hasn't been remapped...

Standard 2002 S3 power output is 221bhp so looks like no remap was done on your car, or it had been and has been switched back.

Just out of curiosity, he's not giving you the 'at wheels' power is he? I understand there is a transmission loss of about 50bhp on S3s so 270 bhp at the flywheel (what remaps are specced at) will equate to about the 220 mark at wheels.

Just a thought?
