The problem IMO with the 100 is the price its 182 money often.
Im suprised they didnt get more.
Torque is probably gearbox limited since its the JC5 box and stock the 100 torque is limited to 200NM (maybe to ensure it isnt better than the 182?) Still Id guess the remap makes~ 176Lb torque which is a fair shove for a lightish car the VRS weight close to 30% more I think so wopuld need 30% more torque.

do they do chips for the dci65 as a mate of mine has one? would have thought so as same engine etc
Yep the 65/80 and 100 share the same bits the 80 and 65 are very very similar just diffferent turbos, injecotors. different ECU mapping an an intercooler on the 80. The 100 has quite a few more uprated/ changed bits.
The 65 get about 70hp in real life a remap will see about 85hp (there rollers slightly over read IMO)
You have to love turbos for gains try get an extra 20% out of a petrol for the same money.
Superchip have an excellent warently service thought.
Why on earth would you want a uni chip a diesel?Quote: Originally posted by Pete on 16 December 2004
dastek!
Unichip did try messing with a TDi Golf and had a mess around, but diesels dont work like petrols so they had it smoking on the first fiddle and I think they gave up diesel are better to be remaped than aftermarket boxes being added.

and how much would the chip be for the extra ~15bhp?
cheers

i used to own a 420gsdi rover
which was a 105bhp standard and the superchip which i think was about £500 would have taken it to 130bhp - all about low end torque with the diesels though - massive torque increase as well if i remember rightly
Yep tunning boxes are another tunning option they extend the fuel injection later into the cycled but can do nothing else.
Usually proper tunning boxes cost about £250~£450.
Anything cheaper is often just a resister whch fools the computer to think the fuel is hot therefore less dense so the ecu injects more fuel than it would if it knew the proper temperature so you get more power. This isnt ideal as it can lead to loads of black smoke but its an option. You can make this type of tunning box for a few pence all you need is a resister.
Is this for your Leon? if so the resiter trick is a common one have a serahc on the Golf forums and there boud to have a stickly on it saying the values they recomend before you get black smoke etc.
It depends most people with remaps say they use the power like mad for the first few miles and loose a few mpg then it goes back to normal sometimes it gets better particualy if they do long distance driving.
Tunning boxes arnt quite as efficient but you shouldnt get much less mpg maybe 1 mpg lower but it all depends. Tunning gives you more power hence naturally the potential to get better MPG as you can keep the engines peak torque longer and also the ability to jump gear. But it also gives you option to burn more.
