1.8 t remap?

[ricki_diego]

i have a normal 1.8 passat just as a run around but im liking the car so much im thinking about getting a 1.8t... i would definatly remap the car.


what sort of power gains are we talking about if the car was the get chipped/remapped?

Hi

If it's the K03s Version then you'll be looking at about 210hp and 245lbft after the map. The K03 will be slightly under at 200hp MAX and 215lbft.

Cheers

I had mine remapped last week and it makes a lot of diffenrence, feels like a different car, you can actually feel the turbo working. best £275 i have spent so far

Who did you use?

Dear all,

I'm new to the forum, so please be gentle!

I have a 52 plate 1.8t and would really like to get it remapped. I'm a total novice, so is there a guide on here anywhere as to where I should start?

I'm in the Reading/Bracknell area, and don't really want to have to travel hundreds of miles!

Many thanks,

Oli

When re-mapping any 1.8t change the DV there very week piont on the car. Also you will get better power and responce if you also run better fuel on a mapped car..

Why travel at all when you can do it all from the comfort of your home with the STS unit! See https://www.vwaudiforum.co.uk/forum/s...d.php?p=426358 and https://www.vwaudiforum.co.uk/forum/s...372#post433372 for more information.

Thanks guys! Not convinced about doing it myself, but I'll investigate.

What's DV?
