did you get the chip from tdperformance

If so, what did they do.
i.e. fit the chip, put the car on a dyno

& how much did it cost

i got it from one of the distributors and it cost £350 but worth it, i gave them the car and they fitted the chip within two hours

I found a distributor in Newcastle, who quoted £175 + VAT. I guess that doesn't include the fitting though.

i live in scotland and there was only one distributor so i may have been charged to much

still worth it tho

i got quoted £ 349 + VAT for a remap by a company in Cambridge. It sounds as if £350 - £400 is the going rate for a chip or remap

I cant see a superchip being that good on the polo GTi to be honest,
If you speak to anyone within the vw/audi group they will never say they have a superchip!
These are more RS turbo and cossie mods!
Also i could never see a Polo GTi beat a new Golf GTi not with that much grunt under the hood!
I Push out 110bhp @ the wheels with a custom code, BMC induction (with custom samco) with vent in wing to force air in, Full magnex with sports centre, uprated plugs etc! And i know for a fact that i would never beat a New Golf GTi

That my game plan, BMC induction kit, exhaust ( iam in two minds about keeping it concealed or to have the pipes showing

) & then a remap or a piggy back chip

Best get saving
