Had an 8P previously, then a 8V 1.6tdi when new (boring to drive) then a A7 3tdi Quattro (slightly more exciting and luxury but still boring to drive) so likely changing for an 2014 S3 next week and have a few questions, I have searched some of them but always good to get a fresh opinion as some of the threads are years old.
1. Would you remap as soon as you have your car? or enjoy it for a few months before hand?
couple of mates said enjoy it first, then in a few months you will be excited again like a new car, but my thinking is why drive the car that's not at it's full potential for a few months?
2. I have read the facelift sounds better than preface lift (including pops & bang as they call it), would any remap help this or would you need to ask specifically?
3. Having read through the threads it's pretty inconclusive and down to preference, but would any kind of panel filter etc. make a difference or be recommended before getting the remap? only looking to go stage 1.
4. Has anyone had there non BE painted/wrapped in terms of external chrome bits? which is best paint or wrap? and what kind of ball park figure did you get quoted.
4. Lastly is there anyone in Glasgow with VCDS willing to help out with a few other 'settings'?
Thanks for any feedback,
