1.15 bar (hohenster) vs 1.30 bar (MTM) remap?

Guys

Which is better?

The Hohenester chip gives lower boost but promises lightning fast ignition times with better engine longevity (due to less boost = less heat).

MTM Stage 1 uses 1.3bar and so the kick would be superb when the turbos are up....I like the idea of that.

Would I notice the difference between 1.15 and 1.30 bar in the RS4 anyway?

Hohenester = 100 quid less also

Thanks for any advice..

Stock the RS4 is 1.1 bar, so I can't imagine what difference .05bar is gonna make. Would be interesting to try it though... It is possible to get power without increasing boost dramatically.

MTM I've seen peak at way over 1.3 bar.

Price shouldn't be a factor, if it is you would look at Superchips...?

Go for a free Revo trial, as it will give you another point of reference.

Thanks for the comments, totally right on the price thing Phil, I just put it down as a point of reference not as a decsion making factor.

I decided in bed last night....the kick is too much to resist.....I can get squeezed in at Dahlback Racing on Friday.
