More torque for my 1.8t...

I recently got my car back after a conversion mk3 20v
its only got 186ft/lbs looking at other 1.8t this seems quite low.

Any suggestions?

 

what management?

even a k03 should hit 200 ish

 

im running dta on a K03 with 238 ft/lb

where was it mapped?

 

is it on emerald? if so they have to map it on the conservative side, cos of it being a simple system not really designed for turbos. So you would have to spend longer on the rollers to get it right, which they obviously didn't

 

plus emerald charge a flat fee of 200, so as long as it runs 'it's alright jack'

 

dubsport did it and yes it is an emerald.

So iam i looking at getting another ECU or another session on the rollers?

Id be happy with 238ft/lbs.

 

does it come already mapped then?

 

it took 2 weeks to get it mapped correctly at stealth

 

also if yours is a 150 spec engine it probably wont make that much welly. Give Dave Walker at emerald a ring and discuss

 

how do i know which engine it is? though the engine code?

 

what is the difference prof other than the vvt??

 

A 150 gets an 'inferior' turbo.

 

can someone please tell me where i can find the engine code?

 

your v5 should have been updated with the new engine number, that'll save you sticking your head in the oily bits

 

oh i havent done that. no one told me too....

cmon fella sort yourself out,

 

Have a word with Darren @ VW Enterprises, he's had some good results using Emerald, over 220 lb/ft torque on a standard 150 unit.

I remember he mentioned something about using the default Lotus Elise map which gives great results.

 

thanks, what do i have to do with the v5 then?

 

it didnt even cross my mind, to be honest.
