VW Golf Mk5 GT TDI Sport 2.0 (170)

Hi Guys,

Can anyone recommend a company/place to get this car remapped? I'm based in Essex... a mate of mine suggested Revo, but doesn't look like they do one for this particular engine? I can see Superchips do, for a 27bhp gain, are they any good?

The car is completely standard currently... really want to get it over the 200bhp mark.. will a decent air filter help with that?

Thanks in advance!

I had my 2006 Mk5 done by JBS (http://www.jbs.co.uk/) in Chesterfield. The problem now is that that was accompanied by removing the DPF and replacing with a bypass pipe from Milltek. The results were great - around 220bhp at a guess - BUT nowadays the DPF removal would be an immediate MOT failure unless you know someone "in the know" (wink, wink).

The DPF is the big issue on these engines and any amount of tune with it in place is unlikely to yield much of a gain.
