ECU Remap or Pedal Box - bradhiggy - 28:th-Oct-2016 Hi All, I have 1.4 GTC and looking to improve it. I cant decide either to have a remap or buy a pedal box. any advice? Thanks RE: ECU Remap or Pedal Box - marcus01 - 28:th-Oct-2016 A remap will give you outright power where as a pedal box will only improve pedal responsiveness. That being said, I have a pedal box on my 2.0 Cdti and it really improves the urgency of the drive. I would certainly recommend one. I was hoping for a remap as well but the tuner couldn't write back to the ecu.

Personally though, for the cost of a 2nd hand pedal box, I would be tempted to try one of them first just to see if it satisfied my needs, if it didn't I would then go for a remap and sell the pedal box on. RE: ECU Remap or Pedal Box - tucpal - 28:th-Oct-2016 remap is the best option RE: ECU Remap or Pedal Box - bradhiggy - 1:st-Nov-2016 Thanks for the advice. i have been looking over weekend and been quoted around £200 -£250 for remap so think im going with that after xmas but just worried will it be to much for a 1.4 engine |
