since then a work collegue has had his TT 1.8T 225hp mapped. same engine i belive, himself and me couldn't tel much of a difference at all
also MRC is a good 3 - 4 hr drive away.
No its not a V reg Dunc.
If this is the TT we custom mapped on 95 RON and that had the restrictive intake kit with a cone filter fitted to it, then it's no surprise, Doug says it felt loads weaker than most of the S3s we map in general. What we were really concerned with most was reliability running 95 octane fuel, and lack of airflow because of the restrictive cone filter+ standard turbo intake pipe.
Just think, it could be 3 - 4 hours of great driving home! You have used tem before and thought they were ok so why risk somewnhere else?
I think you can go upto 270bhp on these can't you?
Wondered if it was my old imola s3, that went up north 3 years ago.

get a forge TIP and ditch the cone, you could pick up a stock air box for pennies. (gas flow proves stock airbox and paper flows better, especially with internal vanes and webbing removed!)
why would he/you/anyone run 95? you are saving a couple of quid per tank and the car runs crap.......
I can feel the difference between standard super and BP ultimate as soon as I fill up.

I used to use Tesco 99RON in my focus ST as it was bio-ethanol and the others where not.
I have not used in in my S3 as of yet. Worth it? I also only put half a tank in at a time so it does not go stale. lol
Are K&N ok panel filters as thats what i have got on order.
''(gas flow proves stock airbox and paper flows better, especially with internal vanes and webbing removed!)'' what are thermal vanes?

Ensure there is not too much oil on the panel filter, because if this gets onto the MAF it kills it
