Hi all ... new here, so first of all hello!

I have been hunting through threads here looking to the answer to this question, but haven't found any definitive answers (apologies if they are there and I've just missed them)

I have owned my '03 plate s3 for 2 years and love it... however it is 100% standard, and I am getting a bit used to the power now and fancy a few extra horses...

Revo remap looks like the way forward for me... but am pretty strapped for cash at the mo, so am wanting to know if it is wise to go for a stage 1 revo map without uprating anything else (specificaly brakes, suspension)? Will the car take it as standard?

Cheers

Matt
 
You will be absolutely fine on standard running gear with a Stage 1 map.

If you plan to go further then you may want to start thinking about upgrading certain components, but I can't see you having any problems yet.
 
Thanks for the replies... just noticed that I've posted this in the wrong forum though... think I should be over in the 8l forum!
 
I did wonder when you said '03 plate, but figured the advice was the same anyway
