Hi guys, new to this forum after becoming the owner of a 57 Golf GT Sport 170, having traded in my Honda S2000 on Tuesday. First impressions are very good indeed though I must confess I was nervous about the change right up until the very last minute (but new house purchase and our dear government's view on all things 'oil' made the change a no brainer really).

So, impressed with the torque, the S2000 had none, always needed to be revved hard, it surges nicely in all gears (don't like first though but this is my first diesel), appears to corner well though not given it full beans yet (will I kill myself if I turn off the ESP?!) and I think it looks great. All in all, very happy!

My question was about remaps, are they worth it, do they make that much real world difference? Is the VW warranty invalidated (I am assuming it is) and what are the post performance figures really like?? Finally, whom would you recommend to do this and how much is this likely to cost me.

Thanks in advance

Neil
