Hi
The 140bhp engine increases to 190bhp on the 2.0TDi. The cost is £499+vat and we have our Sale Weekend on this weekend which offers 10% discount.
Cheers Shaun.
Does it really matter to an insurance co if you either go for (a) 255 or (b) 232, and if they do offer cheaper for less how can they tell, why not just tell them its a 10bhp upgrade from ebay.
I really like the sleeper look of the TFSI sport version, I preferred the non-aggressive cupra MK1, so im seriously considering getting one. remortgage!!!

In few days I'll do remapping to 240 BHP. Two german tuners (B&B and Abt) going for 240 only by remapping, so that's the number to go for.
I'll post first impressions. Brakes will cope with that power, but I'm not quite sure about front suspension. I think TCS/ASR will blinking first 100 feet

you just have to used to that wheelspin in 1,2 and 3rd gear. Allways aware in corners, with full attention. we are talking about 340 Nm....
feels much faster in 3rd and 4th gear, with sportscar-like kick in the back while accelerating....

I am in agreement about not telling the insurance about a remap...If its in an accident..How would they know. Its not as if they check the ecu to see if it contains the same information. And im sure a revo SPS will be availavble shortly so you could set it back to standard.

i have an important question... can someone give me an answer. i have the oportunity tu buy a sportec K04.300 turbo to replace the K03 in the tfsi... but i also want to do the chiptuning next week, before i have the K04. the question is... after i install the K04, do i have to remap the ecu again? even if i remapped it to say.. 240ps? several tuning kits including the K04 and ecu go to 270ps, and only with ecu to 240... are the two ecu remappings different?
i want to know this because if i have to remap it again after installing the K04, even i i already remapped it to 240ps before the k04.... i don't want to pay for the remapping twice.. i'll just wait until i install the K04.. and then do the remap.

not much... there are no kits for the tfsi with the k04... just the k04.300 turbo because it fits perfectly in the place of the k03... don't know boost presure... the standard for the K03 was 0.9 bar and after remapping about 1.1 bar so the k04 a little higher than 1.1... suppose about 1.3-1.4bar... with modified pistons, exhaust and ecu, there's a evo-R kit with 350ps which uses the k04.300... so it has some potential.. but at 350ps and front wheel drive.... ) chaos!!

ya i know all that... but now i'm having an even bigger problem )
i don't know where in germany i can find a k04.300.... and aprox how much it will cost... it should be arount 800$ i guess
i just sent a mail to sportec asking them just that... where in germany i can find a k04.300, and how much.... if it's too much or i can't find one... i'll just stick with the 240ps ecu from upsolute
