    remapping a a3 1.8t sport

    NonBDW means non drive by wire. This means that the engine uses a throttle cable, which can be seen on the front of the engine. The later models had a drive by wire system which was not a direct cable connection rather a servo (correct me if im wrong anybody). hope that explains it...

    remapping a a3 1.8t sport

    Is yours the DBW or the nonDBW engine? that could be the differance in price. I think the remap for the DBW engine is more expensive for some reason. Im not sure bout MPG, but it shouldnt be any worse than it is now, and on long motorway journys may be more economical. might just seem to be less...

    remapping a a3 1.8t sport

    i would personaly recomend custom code. had my 2000 1.8t remapped by them and still makes me smile. doesnt push the engine too hard, more like standard power delivery but just more of it. definatly worth the money in my opinion, n not sure if they are still doing 30% discount, but if they are...
