Hi all. Anyone know of, or have any recommendations for, Celtic Tuning? They are offering 1.9tdi remaps for £300 which seems pretty good value to me. Their website doesn't explain where they are based - I think they come to you. They claim to have developed their own software/maps. Just wondered if anyone has used them before and with what results.

Cheers.
 
A company that nobody has heard of won't have developed there own software and be selling it for £300! They'll simply be buying generic maps from somebody like dimsport and uploading them to your car. That's not neccaserily a bad thing thing but i'd ask a few questions:

What power/torque are they aiming for?
Will your car smoke afterwards (overfueling)?
What warranty has it got?
Will they flash back to stock then reflash the ECU for free if you have any problems?

The good thing about say REVO is that it's always better to diagnose a fault in stock mode. REVO allows you to switch between it's map and stock setting. Plus it's an international company with loads of dealers and very good customer support.

For the sake of £200 i know where i'd rather put my faith.

I’m not buying that, if they come to you I’m guessing they don’t have a rolling road so where do they develop theses maps? you don’t mention if they scan the car for fault codes and do they do a smoke test to check for leaks
 
I was a graduate software developer once, I still don't know **** about tuning :)

Also this thread is from 12 years ago...

Haha I didn’t even notice that I just seen it at top of the board, that’s some digging to revive the thread

Almost 12 years , is that an ASN record ?

CT are naughty people , their dyno is generous as a 1.9 130 PD puts out 189 bhp and worse than that is they claim the gain is 59 bhp from 130 bhp when on their generous dyno stock map put out 144 bhp so really it's a 45 bhp gain .
