Remapping and upgrading clutch

[Shepp]

Hi folks,

I'm considering a remap on my 58 plate 2ltr TDI 143ps model and was wondering if it has the same clutch and engine internals as the 170ps model? I know the injectors and turbo are bigger on the 170 but I was wondering if I remapped whether the clutch would match the torque and bhp considering it won't be much above the 170ps model.

I remapped my previous A4 143bhp & A5 177bhp, both to Stage 1, never had any clutch issues, both had the map on for over 3 years.

You'll not regret it, I noticed more of a difference on the A4 than I did the A5 map (Blufin)
