  • In this episode I'm back at CG Motortech, this time I'm with Ray! And we are remapping the UK's cheapest golf GTI with a flash tune to take it to approximately 240bhp. Watch as we upload the tune and take it for a drive. I also do 0-60 runs before and after the map!
    Mat Armstrong eat your heart out lol 😆.

    Last year we bought an A6 allroad (3.0tdi) at 300k miles, did a full carbon clean, put an intercooler, intake, straight pipe (no dpf on them then) and mapped it. 320bhp and ran it for 12 months with 0 problems up til 360k miles. Used it as a van stripped rear seats and used it to carry parts about (we rebuild salvage cars and sell parts). High mileage heroes are the one, it still felt like new and the new owner is happy and hasn’t had any issues either! We’ve had a few gtis and mapped one at 180k so don’t worry you won’t have any problems from that alone just obviously make sure to do more preventative maintenance and weak points on them!

    My old a4b7, I mapped that at 199k although I changed the turbo and clutch before as they were original. Sold it at 263k and it never missed a beat!

    Liked and subbed! I have a silver 3 dr mk5 dsg running 285 bhp, my quickest so far on ps5s is 5.14 0.60. I plan to st4ip the rear seats before going ko4 in hopes to dip in the 4s! Can't wait for another mk5 gti video!

    I've got an audi s4 b8 I want to get maped, a company in Kent called phantom tuning will get me up to 400bhp for £250. i think they've got a place round your way but Kents closer for me.

    Always a worry when mapping a high mileage car as it’s been used to current power / boost for so long. Are any pipes or clips tired, if manual how’s the clutch etc 😂. Gonna enjoy this one

    I have a Seat Altea FR, it has the GTI engine, heavier than the MK5 though.
    My stage 1 map from R-Tech is 254bhp and 309lbft. My best 0-60 is 5.5secs confined by dragy. See my videos on my channel, quarter mile 14secs.

    How much was it for the remap? And how much did your insurance go up?
    7.1 down to 6.2, not bad, mines an auto A3 8P 200bhp Quattro I think it’s 0-60 is 6.5. With a remap plus intake n down pipe with sports cat I want to get it below 6 seconds

    • @usuallybrokencars
      @usuallybrokencars  Před 4 měsíci

      The remap cost is different per vehicle I believe, however if you call CG Motortech you'll be able to get a price easily. With it being a quattro I think it would easily get into the 5s!!
