Re; remap
My '02 GTi 138 had a generic Angel Tuning remap and came out at 141bhp.
The actual power is not really what it's about - it's the drivability and performance that improved. It was more economical too, ironing-out flat spots and hesitations.
The remap cost £200 (group buy) - but that was without any major mods on my car.
For GTi-like performance a remap is a must
Chi's GTi came out at 125bhp pre-remap, and Kayleigh's GTi was about 131bhp - so you are unlikely to find a 138 with 138bhp

kyle had 172bhp with just a k&n typhoon and janspeed cat back
rs tuning remap and cat cams 804s went to 195.5

just to add to this thread. anyone know the power output after a 180 has been mapped with a janspeed catback and pannel airfilter ?
180 bhp if your lucky lol
As said by Ant though it's all about the drive,
It may only unlock a little more power but that power makes a s**t load of difference to the overall drive, so much so that after owning a mapped up 180 previously i'd completely forgotten that they actually need the mapping when reverting back, the difference that just the generic Angel tuning map with my Scorpion catback/ Simota CAI was immense I remember it made it in to a complete different car, no RR results but for me they wasn't needed because the difference was seriously noticeable.
I'm betting that the cammed and mapped 180 would absolutely slaughter another mapped up 180 without the cams.

#25: Re: GTI re-mapping Author: JamieM, Posted: Tue Feb 08, 2011 6:13 am ---- I don't know if it's just me but did that recording 180/RC start accelerating before the final 'beep' if so it could have been better, and the vid should have been longer because it would have just kept pulling:)
But yeh that's the difference mapping makes:)

You'd need about double the torque to slaughter another 180.

I'd like to see a cam'd one vs another 180, i'd be suprised if there wasn't a significant difference in acceleration.. do they not work well with higher lifting cams then?
Cam's and map make a huge difference on most cars, for example on a Saxo yarrrrrs a Saxo, mine is around 130-40 bhp so i'm told just the usual breathing mods (uprated filter ~ Simota CAI, 421-decat back, denso irridium plugs)
Mapped up with cams they can produce up to 165bhp and they rip past breathered vts's easily:)

#29: Re: GTI re-mapping Author: MutilateTheDead, Location: DerbyPosted: Tue Feb 08, 2011 6:57 am ---- so......... if i just re-map a standard 206 gti i wont see any difference but cams and re-map i will?
#30: Re: GTI re-mapping Author: Lee180, Location: ScunthorpePosted: Tue Feb 08, 2011 6:58 am ---- no you will see a difference in driablity and a little more BHP and torque
