Morning all

 

Good news from Shark HQ, in that full software remaps for the 2.0TDI CR184 and CR150 are now in sight and almost ready.

 

Stay tuned for further update and results from our own Octavia vRS!

 

If anyone would like to register their interest please do so within this thread to be notified when we update the thread!

 

Cheers

Full software remaps as in no tuning box and done directly via the OBD port? Excellent!

 

Any hints on how they compare to the tuning boxes? More power? Better economy?

The ECU will need to be removed to be tuned, as with previously protected ECU types.

 

We never quote economy gains from our remaps because it's impossible to know how each car is going to be driven, but we'll post up information from our tests with our own Octavia. Tuning boxes will no doubt continue to be the preferred option for some customers, and it would be unfair to compare them directly.

This is good news!

Tuning box customers tend to put a higher value on the untracable nature of the box compared to the remap.

Not likely to do anything until warranty is up anyway, but good to know that proper remaps are possible now.

I'd be interested to know more when you've done some tests.
