Which mapping company?

[James cupra 290 black]

Hi guys

I have a mk3 cupra 290 black. I am new to tuning lol. Looking at a stage 1 remap. My local garage are great and have done work on this car and my previous Leon’s. They use quantum tuning. Has anyone used this tuning company before and are they any good?

My car is a manual so I am aware a new clutch is probably a good idea at the same time. What sort of price do you guys think everything will cost?

Thanks in advance for any help/advice

Same as me, P torque isn't far from you, they get great results from the cupra and can limit the torque to save the clutch

Get yourself up to jbs in Chesterfield.

Another vote for JBS Auto in Chesterfield. They've done my FR and I know they've done plenty of Cupra's too. They know their stuff so definitely worth considering.

That’s great thank you. Food for thought. R-tech in Nuneaton is only 30 mins from me. Anybody recommend them.

Yup, 100%. I've been there a few times now (including Stage 2+ mapping on my MK2).

@James cupra 290 black I asked R-Tech for a quote on my MK3 R and they said they have not developed the map yet and do not have time for it. If you're lucky they may already have a 290 map...

I had a Quantum tune on a MK5 Ibiza - no complaints or problems in 50,000 miles. I have nothing to compare it to having not had once since though!

R tech are very good especially custom mapping, if they are 30 minutes away from you then you are about to be a regular customer lol

Stage 1 just stick with tried and tested off the shelf software which has been developed properly aka APR,REVO,MRC,Unicorn.

R-Tech if they offer the specific map, JBS (although I had a bad experience many years ago and said id never recommend them again).

 

[James cupra 290 black]

Thank you all once again for all the advice. Nothing is going to be done while in lockdown

Stay away from jbs they mapped my mates car and its pulling too much timing and hes getting throttle closure issues.

My recommendations are unicorn,mrc and r tech

 

[rozer1974]

unicorn all day long i had stage 2 APR which was good for a while but i knew rick was a master i was not wrong throttle mapping he puts in his maps is superb when cruising about dead spot in pedal has gone . car has power everywhere feels faster than APR and smoother am about to go stage 3 and guess who am going back too

I'd give Litchfield's (Tewkesbury) a call if that's not to far for you..

Hi guys, looking at getting stage 1 remap done on my 2019 Cupra 290 (FWD). Was wondering if any of you have had it done and if so, how does it cope in terms of grip with the extra power? I've still got the std conti tyres on but plan to change to Michelin PS4S soon. Cheers

Revo.

Got mine done today

Budget £1100 if you get the DSG done too.
