It'll be a great drive home. Even if it has had a remap by someone else it'll be a noticable difference.

I hope so mate :thumbs:

I just couldn't imagine it had been mapped before as it was a totally standard car when I bought it minus the lowering springs, and they were done by the previous owner that only had the car 6 months!!.

We will see hey

When I had MRC do a Stage 2 remap (and fit a Milltek) I took the longest route home I could think of as the noise and the performance where just on a completely different level.

Sport mode now does what it should have done from the factory IMHO, the car is just so much more "alive".

Great to hear it Dave :thumb:

As said, already have had the CC done (just over 1k miles ago), precats removed, JHM intake spacers, Flaps removed, CAF, P+P intake so should utilise those as well :mrgreen:

Anyways, sorry to hijack your thread J1TVV but as you can see. What you are proposing gets the thumbs up from these guys :thumb:

Agree also Mike.

I think the RS4 in general transforms completely once dropped down on springs/coilovers. Really accentuates the flared arches

Thanks guys, totally agree that it completely changes the look and makes the arches look much bigger, some how. I'm still getting used to not having a gap big enough to fit my big head into anymore! Lol
