Remapping - MK4 R32

**thekraut** · 27-12-2008, 06:50 PM

I've done it

Gotta say this: While it won't make the car 1 second faster 0-100kmh, and won't give an extra 50kw, it DOES bring the power of the MK4 R32 close enough to the MK5 R32. Drove a MK5 R32 yesterday prior to the remap and today, once done, mine feels just like it. Highly recommended!

Speak to Gavin (forum member) - h100vw - and he'll be able to arrange to get your MK4 R32 to where it should be as a starting point in power/torque terms!

Good to hear one's been done now. I asked Gavin about it a while back out of interest and I'm still weighing up the options available to me.
Have you got a figure for the power increase for the Aussie ones now and also do you have any dyno charts?
I know the APR gives an extra 12kW so I'm interested to know how the custom code compares?
I would've thought that the upgrade would've made it more powerful than the MkV as there's only 7kW between them anyway.

Nah no solid figures as yet - only had it done today so no time to DYNO. But, can definitely feel the difference.

Good stuff. Are you planning on getting it dyno'd? I'd imagine Gavin would be keen for you to have it done as well so he can use it for sales material.

Yeah hopefully if its not too hot on Friday I'll see about getting it in somewhere.

Yeah this sounds goodly!...I have the APR as well...Does anybody know wat time period do you need to re-tune these chips?

**thekraut** · 27-12-2008, 07:38 PM

I got my ECU flashed rather than chipping so no need for retuning.
