Most of the threads i have read about remaps talk of removing the dpf. I know the remap can be done without removing it, but would the increase on torque/bhp be noticeable? Or is the dpf delete essential?

Main reason for asking is i can justify the cost of the remap without the removal of the dpf... But probably not the works.. :(

Car is an 07 octavia vrs 170pd.

Thanks in advance..

Cheers..

The DPF delete isn't essential by any means, and the differences on a stage 1 map are definitely noticeable

Thanks for the reply. That's good news.. I'm only in Lincoln, so I will come over to Mansfield after Christmas to find out what's involved and get prices etc.

Great problem free maps as well, I have a CR170 mapped by Ben, 27K miles on nothing but smiles!!!

+1, I have a shark remap on my DSG superb with DPF and have no problems at all.

Thanks for the reply. From what i have read shark are well respected, so I had decided if i was going to get it done it would be there. Do you get premature wear of any components with a remap?
