Interested to see where this goes. I'm researching options for my wife's car.
What map will you be going for?

All i need now is a high pressure fuel pump and i will be getting revo stage 2+.
Or maybe i may get mrc to map it if they can map in flat foot shifting and launch conrtol.
That will save me getting a wot box :).

Revo and MRC were the 2 I was looking at. Reno certainly seem to be the popular one for these cars but I just can't ignore what MRC can do with all audis.
She has the DSG so already has launch control and flat foot shifting.

Is that a cat back or turbo back exhaust? And how much difference did you notice from that and the air filter? I know a remap will be needed to fully appreciate them but I'd expect some noticeable improvements on the OEM map.

Looks good mate,
I've be looking into the MRC maps, as seeing what they can do on all the other models is good work and gains on bhp, your not hanging about on getting the power out of it :).

I have booked it in at r-tech now as they are the boys for thease engine.
And they can map in flat foot shifting and launch control :) and mrc cant map that in yet.
Stage 2 will take me up to 350hp but i need to order the internals for my fuel pump :)
Then i can get 390bhp out of her. But on a standard clutch it might be pushing it.
You should hear it not :))

I'll currently working that day but if I'm off looking after the kids I'll be passing by at about that time on way back from the school run.

I think it rides quite well. There is more roll than I would like. Having said that I've not thrown it into bends like I would my own car but although it rolls it still goes round roundabouts at great speed. This may be helped by the fact it's riding on 19 inch wheels with Goodyear eagle F1s.
