S6 C4 Chip

[Duffelcoat]

Right, I know I have posted a lot, but going round a big spend and have come to the conclusion that to save money I might be happier with a chipped S6 rather than 350bhp or something...

Due to my increasing age, I now would like a bit more and don't think I am that bothered about it being blistering performance as I quite like the performance already.

So do I

Go to MRC and get a pro remap changing any knackered bits at the same time.

Or get an ECU chip and bung it off and then replace anything that goes bang afterwards!

Anyone have experience etc of either the above and if go down chip route where can I get it!

Sorry for all the questions tonight!

Start with this and after you are convinced everything is working perfectly with stock boost then ask the question again :-) http://www.sjmautotechnik.com/troubl.../20vboost.html

Chip from me for example...
I don't see why anything should go bang either. Yes, tired boost hoses may blow and weaknesses in the ignition system might be highlighted, but everything else will be fine most of the time.

MRC does not do anything with these cars anymore afaik.

How much for chip and when can I get it!!

Is it easy to fit?

You remove the ECU, send it off, receive it back, and re-fit it.

Can give you one if it gets that far.

How long does it take and how much does it cost?

Probably two weeks due to shipping turnaround. 175 + P&P. Includes socketing and bigger MAP sensor.
