junkie 0 Posted November 16, 2007 A good place to discuss your 20vt conversions and any issues you may have with running etc. Just for vwdeviant it should be a sticky as more people are running them in Corrado's. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

junkie 0 Posted December 4, 2007 Try the likes of Revo etc for Generic remaps, pretty much load and go. Or if you want a specific remap for your engine which is more useful for an engine with a few bolt on goodies then try the likes of Jabbasport/Stealth etc for a custom remap. All thats needed either way is your wallet lightened between £350-£500. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted December 4, 2007 Most 1.8T remaps are done over the serial port as 180 and 225 ECUs have a checksum state, which means it will shut itself down if it detects any changes in the maps. It is possible to live map a 1.8T, so long as you use an emulator and delete the checksum error checker. I don't know who can do that though! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
junkie 0 Posted December 4, 2007 Jabbasport have an emulator and they map 20v's all day sure they could help, its mainly Michael Truluck who is the 20v mapping man who you should chat to. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bcstudent 0 Posted December 4, 2007 I can personally recommend Custom-Code, and they now have a mobile service that'll come to your house. My Leon has the same AUQ engine as your Corrado and it's so much fun since the remap. Fuel economy hasn't really changed, unless you start regularly using the extra 60+bhp and 80+lbft. VAGCheck in Staines are a Custom-Code agent too, and probably not that far away. Final gains will depend entirely on your other mods. If the engine is standard or lightly modified then a stage one generic map is probably the way ahead. Stage two generic maps account for intake and exhaust mods and offer more power, or there are bespoke custom maps available. You'll probably be better off getting the car custom mapped as it's an engine conversion. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mistrall 0 Posted December 5, 2007 also , (nooby question) , i have a boost guage that measures upto 1psi , but there is a red bar at 0.8psi , are these accurate and should i be staying out of the red or can i floor her ocasionly? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted December 5, 2007 1bar and 0.8bar don't you mean? 14.5 psi and 12psi in old money.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mistrall 0 Posted December 5, 2007 oops yes bar (hides) lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corrado1.8t 0 Posted December 7, 2007 Alright mate, it will boost to around 0.6 standard which is fine and normall you can drive it as hard as you like. with the remap you'l be looking at around 1.2-1.3 bar and id recomend a custom code for the c as the revo may say its custom but is still a generic map whereas the cc is to the car. Hope you enjoy her as im missing her and so board Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mistrall 0 Posted December 8, 2007 HEY MATE , THANKS FOR THE REPLAY AND THE INFO :) YOU HAVE SET MY MIND AT REST (CAPS IS STUCK) ILL LOOK AFTER HER DONT WORY :) SHES NOT GOING TO BE RAGGED ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hope you enjoy her as im missing her and so board Custome Code is a generic map too, the CC2 is the tailor made one and last time I got quoted was in the region of £500!!! Swings and roundabouts, If my GT28RS dunt come off I'll probably go REVO as the dealer is 5min from my house, the Nearest CC dealer is 2 hours away!

corrado1.8t 0 Posted December 9, 2007 my local dealer also said that the revo is more aggresive but dies earlyer in boost where as the cc map is consistant and will pull all the way, id go for the cc as its hard enough to get the power down as it is unless you go lsd.

My C-C map is fairly aggressive too, if I'm honest. Wheelspin is the order of the day now, especially with the current weather. I'd struggle to beat a 1.2 Corsa off the line in the damp/wet.

tim20vt 0 Posted December 10, 2007 antone have any idea on the rough dimensions of the g60 fmic or know what size will fit in without moding the front im about to sit my tt engine in cheers :D any ideas on what sort of size i mite need for running around 270 bhp Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted December 12, 2007 Stock G60 IC is about 10" tall, 5" deep and 7" wide. I found it drops about 4psi, so it's not the most efficient IC in the world but being a side mount, it's well away from any sources of heat. Should be OK up to 270hp. You'll get better results with a larger one though, particularly in the midrange torque. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
junkie 0 Posted December 12, 2007 Sorry Kev i disagree, its poor on a standard car never mind 270bhp. I do agree bigger is always better though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted December 12, 2007 Just noticed he was asking about the G60 FMIC so it's irrelevant now anyway. My S/C VR6 made over 280hp with a G60 side mount IC so they can't be that bad. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
