Custom Tuning By BPS in Brisbane-Review & Results - Golf R

[shinygti]

Had my golf R tuned by jame a week ago now and am more than happy with the result and can not reccomend him enough to everyone. He knows his stuff and is a no B.S guy. i managed to get 181awkw and 460nm with just the tune and turbo xs dump pipe and next is the fuel pump and intake . TARMAC where did you get your HPFP upgrade from ? also heard you are now going for turbo upgrade... cant wait to see how it goes after.

Hey mate, those are excellent results for just the dump pipe and tune. You must be able to feel the difference but of course you want more. haha, HPFP is from hpfpupgrade.com. Email John and see how he is going for stock as the pumps have been hard to get due to supply from VW. Flows about 15% more the other popular 3 letter company name pump and is about half the price. Its also very good quality. Turbo upgrade will be happening very soon. Most items will be here in 2-3 weeks and then i need to get a couple of parts as )just incase" items. Should be a weekend job to install it all then it needs to be tuned, buy James at BPS of course. Should be about 260awkw safely and then i will upgrade the rods and pistons later in there yeah and this will allow me to bump things about and net around 320-350awkw which will be insane. Looking forward to it.

Are you still running the stock cooler Ben? If so any plans of upgrading or not?

You should post up you initial power runs figures too as James's dyno seems to read very low compared to some of the others used by the guys here including ours, i.e that 181 would be a fair bit more at some other places.

Im Glad you mentioned this Parso_Rex. So given that my torque is 505nm i should have 250awkw.....i wish.....soon i will. SOON.....*Dr Evil Laugh*

By a long shot if you are after a custom tune he is the man to talk to, Known him for wee while now and i actually got his old job at Porsche before i ditched the dealership circus. Havent had the pleasure of a coffee out there yet though , beibng a Geeza he would make a better cup o tea!!!
Good to see some nice results guys.

Funny enough he makes instant coffee all day long. Havent seen a cup of tea out there yet.

Well, theres another approval. Guys just go out there for a chat. Its worth while before you get an internet tune.
