Hey, been looking at different companies for a while to decide who should remap my fr tfsi. Most companies are offering around 240-45 as the after figures for their remaps, and some even go as far as 250, but 265 sounds like a really big increase for just a stage 1 remap. anyon used celtic tuning before? ill be gettin the upgraded vag diverter valve, without the rubber diaphram, so hopefully that'll help reliability, and all i want is a stage 1, but 265 still sounds a bit much

If its Celtic tuning in Newquay, Cornwall, then i had my old MK1 Leon 150 diesel remapped by them. Did a good job as far as i could tell, no problems and very helpful. A lot cheaper then a REVO map as well.
Thinking of getting my cupra done now as they now do a switching device.
I had no complaints. so i would recommend them.

nice one, thanks. yeah they have places all over the uk, im in northern ireland and they have one about 20 miles so thats pretty handy
what about the bluefin superchips remaps then? anyone used these? no where near the same power increase, they claim 41 extra bhp, but like the idea of switching back to standard before taking it to the dealers

A lot of people rave about there maps on the Audi forums, personally id be taking a trip to Will @ P-Torque.
just contacted them for my 2.0 Tdi 170, looking at £375 but i need to travel 150mi to Glasgow and back, so £425 gives me the remap and also a self tuning device (much like the bluefin).
This is what they say:
Thank you for your enquiry with Celtic Tuning.

Only things thats making me think twice about a remap are;
cost - £425 buys allot of fuel and is a years insurance;
warranty - spoke with the garage and they say that most people are OK having them but they still cant guarantee it wont invalidate the warranty;
PCP finance contact - as the finance company effectively own the car i think you officially need permission to get these things done, something they wont give as it affects the warranty of the car.
Whilst im generally happy to do it, for the gains i worry that they wont offset the trouble caused by future hassle.
Still very tempted tho!....

If you don't own the car (e.g. it's financed with the loan being secured against the car), I would avoid making any modifications that might affect standard warranty/insurance. There have been some horror stories about the finance companies taking an extremely dim view on this if anything goes wrong and demanding their money/car/both back early.
Personally, my FR will be my first fast-ish car and I'm hoping I don't get the tuning/modding bug as it all looks rather addictive and expensive, from what I've been reading!

yeah their new eMotion switching device looks pretty good, if they have that for mine im pretty sure thats what ill go for, 265 is far more than any other company ive seen, most of which only 235-245
240 - 245hp from software only on the 2.0TFSI
260 - 270hp is possible from custom mapping and turbo back exhaust system
