best stage 1 map? - grouty - 11-02-2013

TB205GTi does the best maps.
Hes a member on here but you might get a faster response if you find him on TDOCUK
He can do anything you want from a stage 1 to a full custom map. Hes done all my recent ones and theyer more powerful and less smokey than anything else ive seen.
RE: best stage 1 map? - grouty - 11-02-2013
how does the clutch cope with the extra power? any slippage?

On a stage one unless your clutch is already f*cked it won't slip, going into stage 2 territory on full torque you will slip your clutch though.

In your opinion, Chris...
Personally i prefer pro_steve (incidentally pro_steve IS HDi-tuning.co.uk), mainly because he'll do exactly what you ask him to, maintains excellent communication at all times and is generally a lovely chap. I'm running at least 130bhp and 220lbft from a pro_steve map (advanced stage 1) with no clutch slip, and i abuse the fecker lol.

advanced stage 1? what does that include? pro steve does seem to get some good feedback, id be loading the map myself. what programs and leads will i need?

I helped a friend of mine put a pro steve map on his car, and i know the chap kept good communication the whole time, more than happy with the service provided, and putting the map on myself was fairly straight forward.

what leads and program did you use? whats the mpg like with a pro steve map?
RE: best stage 1 map? - Toms306 - 11-02-2013
I've used galletto to do a few HDi maps now.
Two out of three hdis I've stage 1'd now have slipping clutches. The other now has a brand new clutch. Mpg doesn't seem any different with or without different maps for me.
What's your ECU number BTW?
RE: best stage 1 map? - grouty - 11-02-2013
ill find out in the daylight. if the clutch starts slipping then ill just put a helix in to make way for a stage 2 map later on
RE: best stage 1 map? - Toms306 - 11-02-2013
If you are thinking of going stage 2 that's probably a good idea. If you're staying stage 1 (which gets boring quickly) then a new standard will be fine.
RE: best stage 1 map? - grouty - 11-02-2013
might as well upgrade it while changing it. are there any blocks on the ecu that will try and block me from remapping?
RE: best stage 1 map? - HDIkyle - 11-02-2013
I found whippys maps to be good. I ran a 128 then a 133 after a service where a mate with the exact same map ran a 128 also
RE: best stage 1 map? - grouty - 11-02-2013
how much did the whippy map cost you? is the drive really as different as people make out?
RE: best stage 1 map? - Poodle - 11-02-2013
It does make that much of a difference, well worth the money imo.
Mine is made for a refurbished R70 pump, 1800bar FRPS, and free-flow exhaust, total cost excluding map is ~£550. I don't yet have a proper exhaust sorted, that should free up some more judging by the smoke.
However, in terms of bang for your buck - the same money would be better spent on stage 2.
