its amazing at just how much more power they can get you for only £400 notes.

300-320lb/ft torque
184-196 bhp


mmmmmmmm.......

Looking forward to getting it done.

Anymore figures from people appreciated.

Marc

Hi,

Got a Golf 130 Tdi (0-60 9.4 secs). Jabbasport do a remap which will take it just shy of 200bhp for £425. Any idea waht this do to the 0-60 time??

Cheers

Cool

As torque is going to go through the roof with any Jabba remap, its the 30-70 that will be more impressive. I'd reckon on just creeping into the high 6's in the dry / low 7's for a standing start, but that would be missing the point really.

Ever played elastic band on the motorway with the car behind ?!

No more figures, but plenty of praise for Jabba with my current car.

On the diesel side, my A4 quattro (TDI V6) was putting out 185bhp and the best timed 0-60 achieved was 7.3 (with 4WD traction you could drop the clutch at the redline !)

Make sure you tell your insurers.

Just you watch your wheelspin at 3000rpm or in the wet when its been Jabba'd that's all I'm saying!

They know their stuff, and thankfully I still have 4x4 !

Can you get the same figures with the 130, 90 or 110TDi as they are essentially the same engine with a different ECU map?

Same question as earlier, just repeating it as it's yet to be answered and I want to know

Anyone know how the Jabba conversion compares with the Upsolute?

Jabba's is done on a rolling road while you wait upsolute is usually software for your ecu code, loaded

Much rather go to the source of the remap for an extra few quid including rolling road prints

I think it's time to shop in my Golf TDi 130 for an Audi A3 with the same engine, but the quattro drivetrain, that way I must just get the power down. I'm struggling with only 130...

ALi

The 90 and 110 are the previous family of emgines, i.e. non PD, there are differences between the PD versions as well, the 150 has a different intercooler I think plus some other bits.
