Hi All,
I'm not looking to open a debate on which is the best remap etc... for the RS3, I'm just surprised that there haven't been more owners sharing their experience of, for what I can work out, the best value and safest remap for the RS3? Not the best remap, just best value. I did a search on this forum and found very little. Just a few mentions in some posts/debate about all the other remaps on offer.
I've done quite a lot of research in to what products are available in the UK. I'm sure there is much I've missed though.
I recently contacted a local dealer about this remap (Claytons MOT and Service Centre, Leeds). He said there was no improvement in fuel economy and the best gains where when using sport mode. He said the maps are extremely accurate.
It's only £365inc VAT and the power gains are enough (not far off 20% gains on both HP and Torque) and you are not invalidating the warranty.
I am familiar with the superchips product because I used to own a Bluefin device. I know these are generic maps, and designed to be 'safe' but they are also, at the very least, half the price of any other maps, but not half the gains.
So, my question is, has anyone else done this remap and in what ways has it improved the car? I'm very tempted.
Maybe someone has a definitive list of known remaps and prices? (UK only please) That would also be very helpful. It'll certainly fill the gaps in my limited research.
Thanks.
