Hello
Yes, I have begun reading through the tuning guides and no it has not given me the answers I want!
I have a 2001 1.8T Sport, but I want to make some specific improvements, namely stiffened suspension, remap and brakes (because mine are just scary!).
I have had a chat with Austec in Crawley (as I work in Southampton Mon-Fri, but at weekends I live in Bristol)... They seem to think they can coax a few more horses out, and suggested changing the shocks (I don't want her lowered), then the brakes.
Can anyone suggest any particular brakes or suspension components that they got on particularly well with? Also, is remapping good on its own or should I be doing anything else at the same time? I don't have buckets of cash but if its sensible to spend it in one go I will.
I am trying to keep the car as understated as possible, but also want to change the sound system. Is there anyone who can recommend someone to do me a custom install? I used to go to Uplands in Bristol, but they recently closed down! I will be changing all the speakers, head unit and amping.
Thanks!
Ben
