Looking forward to a dyno plot. :)
Hi peeps,
I've just recently bought an 01 Bora TDi 115 Sport. Seriously considering a remap but buying the car has put me back a bit so i'm very tight on budget. A friend gave me his tuning box (as he's had his remapped since) so I've been unsing that recently though I've gathered its not 'healthy' for the car.
What price can I expect from your contacts Dieseltronics?
Also... I've been doing a little reading around... the 115bhp pd engines for Bora come with either 285Nm or 312Nm... How can I find out which one mine is (although it certainly feels like the former!)? My friend told me that the MAF is quite problematic on these VWs... how can I find out if mine needs changing.
Any help would be appreciated...
Thanks
Hi guys
I have now done around a 1000 miles on my remap by Mark at Chip n Spin. It's like driving a new car the torque is massive. I had a demo 3.0tdi A6 for a couple of months while waiting for my 2.0tdi to turn up, since the remap my 2.0 A6 isn't far off the midrange pick up of the 3.0tdi. I still haven't managed to reach the top end as my tyres are only rated to 120, the car will spin in 3rd gear if i'm show boating. During normal driving the MPG is up and the driveability is improved massively with a very smooth power curve. Certainly the best investment I have made. You can reach him on 07756-190026.
Good to hear another chipped tdi'er thats happy.
MAF was all good... maybe my expectations are a bit too high for my car.:D
Think I wait for the remap... pockets are close to empty.:o
Once a remap is done, how long does it take to take effect i.e. notice a significant difference?
I hear different things on different forums (well I read hehe). Some people say it takes upto a couple of hundred miles as the engine has to gradually adjust to the new parameters, whereas some claim that it takes effect immediately and there are no further changes following that.
