Thinking of getting my GTI remapped at the new year
Has anyone had a remap from custom code or star performance?
What other companies have people dealt with?

Tomo has had a remap in his. Cant remember who by, tho it pushes nearly 140bhp now!

the previous owner had the map done as a custom map by JBS....certainly pulls a lot higher and better than standard
but to be honest my friend does revo and there isnt much point in mapping any cars without a turbo,i would save your £400-£500 for something better

As above, you're never going to get big power out of the GTi. IIRC it's pretty highly tuned as it is.
Save your money for something else

I'll be getting exhaust, manifold and some porting done at least before I get mine remapped.

I have a decat dude that freed up quite alot of power! The car was loud but sounded awesome! Like a vtec on steroids
You can buy it off me if you like since im selling the car

What does that have to do with remaps?

is this not something else worth spending £400-£500 on rather than a remap? sorry.
