hi been away from the forum for ages due to changes in life .

just getting back into the vrs had it well over a year and just started to make it more my own .

i removed the octavia badge and added a mesh behind lower centre grill was getting a few thing stuck in my lower rad .not sure if ill keep it looking like this or change it in the future .

cant decide what to do next new alloys maybe 19in or a remap and if a remap which ones are good

can any one help :confused:

Your car looks spot on as it is, so I'd go for a remap.

As to which one, I'm sure that someone will be along to advise (don't know a thing about remaps for the TFSI) - Revo seems to be a popular one, although I think there have been some issues around claimed bhp outputs from their maps and real independent RR outputs

thats more or less what i decided ,to go for a remap but seems loads to choose from.

cant decide if i like the bright looking alloys so was thinking of getting a darker look to them

think im at a funny age lol might be the second childhood starting

Definately a remap and I have no hesitation in recomending REVO for the TFSI. Have a quick search and you should find some more information.

Thread moved to a more appropraite forum.

thanks for a quick reply just emailed a local revo dealer for costs etc

As a 'Wolf in Sheep's clothing' type of guy, it would have to be the re-map for me. Stick to the standard look yet blow them away with the performance.

Ive been thinking of having the wheels that are on 18in from skoda powder coated there a bit to shiny for my liking awaiting for prices to come back from a couple of companys

Definately getting a remap waiting for replys from local ish places, the bank holiday is not helping

I too like the more stealth look to a car i must be getting old

Not so sure it's an age thing. Yes I am getting on, 39 soon to be 40 but I have always preferred the subtle look.

Stealth for me everytime to!

I do have one special upgrade for the back window ,a lovely pattern of dog nose prints

i keep forgeting to clean them off

Got some prices back for remaps just got to decide which one to go with

Be interested to know what prices you get for remaps and with what company. Also with regard to wheels, I was thinking of maybe changing mine to a dark colour, black or dark grey. Reckon that would look subtle but cool. Would suit the Race Blue colour too.

the prices ive had back for remaps so far are

derv doctor do a serial port re-map for

Don't get too carried away with the claims of power and torque, the quoted figures should be taken with a pinch of salt imho. That is not to say that you won't be dissapointed with whatever you decide upon but from my experience with the REVO software is that it's a first class generic remap (which incidently is switchable via the OBD port if you get the optional Select Switch).

I'll think you'll find that REVO is in fact

tsl have said they will do the revo for

Hmmm, I think they might be getting mistaken with the earlier 1.8T prices. 2.0Ltfsi price is

Had a remap done by Revo 2 years ago on my 1.9TDi L&K but had to have it taken off due to a judder that apeared in 4th and 5th gear. It turned out that they had increased the BHP to a point where the fluid clutch got warped!

The companies that quote the highest BHP figures are not necessary the best, or the best for you car.

Luckily fixed under warranty -

Anyone else used pendleperformance on a 2.0tdi...very tempted cos of the price. Also liking the sound of smooth power delivery rather than brutal.

As I had that done in my old Fiat and used to make my mrs pretty sick!
