Remapping

Post by Scottyr81 » Wed Jun 20, 2018 3:44 pm

Can anyone give me more info on this please? Performance figures after having it done? Did your MPG increase dramatically? Good experiences/bad experiences?

Very little gain to be had from a re map on these N/A cars and don’t think they suffer the same carbon build up as the B7 they’re not particularly fast an S3 will keep up no bother enjoy it for the looks and sound an save you’re hard earned

MRC stage 2 with exhaust and deflap is around the 460PS mark with a carbon clean.

What about when the s3 runs out of puff?

Whatever s3 model you look at, the RS4 is quicker round a track. Never mind a B road.
RS3...now that's different :thumb:
Back on topic, this is the map I'll be going for (further to a gearbox diagnosis) http://www.eliteremaps.com/tuning/audi/ ... ower-450-3

What made you choose them, they look a little generic?

It’s not slating the Rs4 I have owned two was only trying to say there’s not much to gain from mapping ! What you do with you’re hard earned is upto you ! I wish I had never spent mine on a B8 and went for the Rs6 I now have instead

Fair comment. What year of RS6 do you have as you get serious gains from remapping them?

If you're referring to elite remaps, then I have used them on previous cars, both NA and turbo'd. Just with a stage 1 remap on my Golf GTI it made 300 bhp straight from 230! :rocker:

It’s a 65 plate b8 has good hpbut the torque let’s it down in my opinion ! Think Surrey sam was only asking as Mrc know these cars inside out and live map to suit specifics ! Hope you get the gains you’re looking for
