Many thanks Blaine some people say the car is gutless mine is far from gutless as standard I did have an 2006 Ibiza fr pdi that was 156 standard had that re-maped 195 when finished pulled like a steam train

Yeah I agree 150 is plenty quick enough but have a M5 as a weekend car and that's when I notice less power, majorty on here who run the DTUK boxes rate them highly so will report when I get one next week.

I've had one fitted to my car FR150 for the past year or so. There are a few threads on the subject, this being one of them: http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=392680&highlight=dtuk which highlights peoples experiences.

Some people have said they suffer with judder, others I think mentioned black smoke and some have said they are experiencing more regens than normal.

I haven't had any issues at all with mine, really simple to fit and change the settings. Fuel economy is pretty much no change, power is definitely up on the stock 150 - website says up to 200BHP I think - which is wholly believable.

I've tried it on all 3 + settings and eventually settled at 1+1 which I personally like. You would have to try all the settings to find the one that suits you.

Overall: well worth the money.
 
I deff recommend it Garry, being running for 2 weeks and car behaves just as standard, had 1 regend in 400 miles of driving which would be the norm, and a lot more power, agree with pj106, hope this helps
 
mr g bird

many thanks blain what settings have you used I am seriously thinking about one now would love a quick blast with some one that as one I think that would seal it for me as I have all ways had cars re-mapped


kind regards

So far just tried 3+1 and 3+2, the latter gives a great power increase tho cars is rarely over 60, noticeable when overtaking. I'd highly recommend it, and bonus is if you don't like it you can return it in 14 days
 
Hi Boys test drove the new Honda civic type r on Sunday first I have had many Hondas over the years
including the legend S2000 but I would have to say not worth 30k.. great handling great seats that's as far as it goes the cupra is better it doesn't shout lets race the world and I am sure Halfords had some development in the body kit I was excited before I drove it deflated after could have been better I will give it 5 out of 10.

I've driven one too. It didn't feel any faster than my Cupra behind the wheel. The interior was naff too.
